Oren Moverman on serving more than just a meal in the unpredictable drama The Dinner.
But this is anything but a normal night out involving two adult siblings and their wives.
The question is, what do they do about it?
But what happens is you realize everybodys an unreliable narrator.
Everyone has their agenda.
Everyone has their point of view.
That ultimately raises a lot of doubts in you.
Whos your guy representing you in this argument?
I agree with them 100%.
Steve was a gift, said Moverman.
So I got on the phone with him, and we started chatting, and it was absolutely wonderful.
I knew he understood this character, he understood his anger, he understood where he was coming from.
I knew he could pull it off and he was very serious about doing it well.
And he decided to just take that route.
I cant say enough good things about him.
For Moverman, his little four-person allegory focuses precisely on that troubling aspect of our society today.
The Dinneris out in limited release now.
