NYTimes Interviews Diane Kruger

I wanted to post this a couple of weeks ago, but for some reason couldn't find an embed code. So here's another in the NYTimes series of screen test-style interviews, this time with Diane Kruger, the German actress in Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds. You'll be seeing plenty of these around here, because I love the way the actors seem so natural, and the questions aren't the same ones that are asked a hundred times over during a publicity tour.
