Elise sat down with Kam Williams. Here are a few snippets.
On The Great Debaters
KW: What interested you in The Great Debaters?
KE: Well, a oldest man to walk on the moon of things. One, I thought it was a fantastic part of our history, of American history, and what an honor it would be to be a part of telling this story. Its a small part, but it was important to Denzel [director/co-star Denzel Washington] that every part be filled by a strong actor. So, it was a no-brainer.
On her next film project Red Soil
KW: The director of Red moresupraultra.blogspot.com is Charles Burnett, who has enjoyed a renaissance this year with the long-overdue theatrical release of Killer of Sheep, a movie he made 30 years ago, way back in 1977.
KE: Im very excited to be working with Charles.
KW: I know that story is set in Ghana. Will you be filming on location?
KE: Yes.
