Interview with Filmmaker Iman Zawahry

Updated November 13, 2015 - Ask NBC to hire Iman Zawahry to direct an episode of Master of None.

My promised interview with filmmaker Iman Zawahry, director of the short films Tough Crowd and UnderCover, is now available!

The best way to keep up with Iman is through her Facebook page.

Here are some links to help you follow the conversation in the last section of the interview:

• Valarie Kaur, director of Divided We Fall, and her visit to my hometown of Augusta, GA
• The Harold & Kumar movies, of the stoner genre
• Clerks, a stoner comedy and Ayman's guilty pleasure
• Grease II
• John Hughes, the filmmaker. You can call yourself a John Hughes fan if you understand all the references to his films in Psych Season 3, Episode 2. I was completely lost.
• Scarface

My suggestion to cast Mariska Hargitay for the feature-length production of UnderCover seems fortuitous, as Mariska and Iman have already met! Here's Mariska's web site.
