At the cinema this week

 

In his interview to Mitch Forman actor Russ Sparks, the star of a new independent film, speaks about his new film, The University of Life.

I play a young lawyer. He lives in the centre of New York City, he’s rich, he has a great apartment, he has a lovely family but he isn’t happy. He has trouble sleeping, and he often works very late. Then, one day, his life changes when he becomes friends with an old man at the city hospital.

Then he gives up his job at the law firm, and he becomes a song-writer and jazz pianist.

The title of the film is The University of Life because the old man tells him simple stories about his life. The lawyer learns a lot from these stories – things he didn’t learn at expensive private schools and university. These stories help him to understand himself and be happy.

At the end of the film the lawyer loves his new job. He also has time to enjoy his family again, thanks to the help of the old man. Saleh al-Ghaoui plays the old man. I love working with him. I learn a lot from him about acting, too.
