A humble man from humble beginnings, Danny Boyle (b. 1956) became a popular cinema darling when <i>Slumdog Millionaire</i> won big at the 2009 Academy Awards. Prior to this achievement, this former theater and television director helped the British film industry pull itself out of a decades-long slump. With <i>Trainspotting</i>, he proved British films could be more than stuffy, period dramas; they could be vivacious and thrilling with dynamic characters and an infectious soundtrack. This collection of interviews traces Boyle's relatively short fifteen-year film career, from his outstanding low-budget debut <i>Shallow Grave</i>, to his Hollywood studio films, his brief return to television, and his decade-in-the-making renaissance. <p/> Taken from a variety of sources including academic journals, mainstream newspapers, and independent bloggers, <i>Danny Boyle: Interviews</i> is one of the first books available on this emerging director. As an interviewee, Boyle displays an engaging honesty and openness. He talks about his films <i>28 Days Later</i>, <i>Millions</i>, and others. His success proves that classical storytelling artists still resonate with audiences.
