Video Interview: Paul Verhoeven

NEW YORK: Dutch director Paul Verhoeven explains his new cross-media, user-generated movie, Entertainment Experience, and talks about making films on both sides of the Atlantic.

 

Verhoeven began his career in television, and went on to produce the feature films Turkish Delight, Soldier of Orange and The Fourth Man. He then crossed the Atlantic and accomplished what many foreign directors have not been able to do—he made a series of extremely successful Hollywood movies, including RoboCop, Total Recall, Starship Troopers and the blockbuster Basic Instinct. He returned to his native Holland in 2006 and produced the award-winning film Black Book. He recently launched an ambitious project: Entertainment Experience, for which FCCE is distributing the format internationally.
