Exclusive: Behind the Scenes of Brad Anderson’s Transsiberian

Posted by Neil Miller (neil@filmschoolrejects.com) on November 4, 2008

Brad Anderson’s Hitchcockian thriller Transsiberian, which follows the story of a couple of American travelers (Woody Harrelson and Emily Mortimer) who get into some trouble on a trip across Siberia, hits DVD and Blu-ray today. When I reviewed the film back in January at Sundance, I called it gritty and intense — and having seen it again on Blu-ray I am holding strong to that opinion. Very intense, very gritty, very well-made. And it appears that the film’s star Woody Harrelson agrees, because as you will see from the exclusive behind the scenes clip below, he likens director Brad Anderson to a young Orson Wells. Have a look below.
