We speak to prolific producer Mark Earl Burman about directing his new Vietnam War movie Ambush, starring Jonathan Rhys-Meyers, Connor Paolo & Aaron Eckhart, and how this project fits in with his larger plans as a filmmaker:
War movies involve a lot of blood, sweat, and tears, and Ambush is no different. Directed by Mark Earl Burman, Ambush is now in select theaters and can also be viewed on digital outlets. Ambush is also part of a larger endeavor on the part of Burman when it comes to his approach to his overall plans in genre filmmaking.
Speaking of the Hitchcockian side of Ambush, you mesh a few different styles in the film. How did you approach marrying such disparate genres in the film? Mark Earl Burman: No, I run a really safe set, I've never really had any injuries. There was one guy who cut himself accidentally on a pole, but that was it and he was fine, he didn't have to go to the hospital or anything. So, it's always safety first, always, always, always. Mark Earl Burman: Well, I've got my core influences, the Kurosawas, the Don Siegels, the Fullers, the Hitchcock.
