The cover picture of the story I quoted earlier. Also, a new design for G2 to go with the reworked front page guidelines.

quote 20:16:06
“ This is exactly the kind of film I want to be making. I don’t want to be making big, silly films. ”
Carey Mulligan’s words to Steve McQueen when trying to win the part in Shame, from her interview in the Guardian: ‘I haven’t seen myself naked in the mirror for a decade’.

quote 21:55:57
“ I probably shouldn’t say the whole storyline. It’s not really apparent in the book. It’s so brilliantly written because all of these terms are used, but you don’t really understand what world these people live in. ”

Carey Mulligan, interviewed on Collider.com. The previous paragraph gives away the premise of Never Let Me Go, the film (adapted from the Kazio Ishiguro novel) in which she stars next.

For me, that process Mulligan describes - not quite understanding the world in a book, but discovering what it is that makes it different - is a huge part of the joy of science fiction. Sure, a lot of people think that it involves “space suits and aliens” (as Mulligan says in the same paragraph), but the best work doesn’t involve that at all.

(Having said that, I never did finish the novel; it spent a bit too much time with characters as characters, rather than action as a character, to abuse a quote from An Education.)
