I thought Hard Candy was a beautiful looking picture that had some very disturbing images and was elegant in and of itself and certainly 30 Days of Night I though was an elegant horror film.Дavid was so meticulous and so inspired by Thomas Harris, which I was as well, so it was great to have a partner to craft the show. David Slade of course, who directed the pilot and set the paradigm for the show is very important. It was about finding directors who I knew had that visual style. How did you collaborate with your three directors, Brian Slade, Guillermo Navarro, BattlestarвЂ™s Michael RymerвЂ¦ You have some good people. The visuals youвЂ™ve created are remarkable. If itвЂ™s too real, then itвЂ™s not as much fun. The horror that we do on the show has a heightened quality to it and I kind of need that vibrating above reality-sense in order to enjoy the work, and have fun with it. Puffed up with the promise of this ground-breakingly insightful opening gambit, I walk into the room, bid Fuller a cheery hello, bring up the antlers, then brilliantly, for the next seven minutes, forget to turn on my Dictaphone. More importantly, itвЂ™s something to chat about in that awkward taking-off-your-coat-and-choosing-a-chair bit of any interview. ItвЂ™s a symbolic meeting of his past and present work. Stag antlers play an arresting role in the HannibalВ opener, and this flashy, glitzy pair seems quite Fuller-y (remind yourself of the opening credits to Pushing Daisies and you might agree).

A pair of gilded deer antlers atop a glittery Mondrian painting, itвЂ™s a piece about the commodification of art, but to someone вЂ“ me вЂ“ fresh from watching episode one of Hannibal, itвЂ™s an apt coincidence. In the window of Covent GardenвЂ™s The Hospital Club, the chic venue for our chat with Star Trek: Voyager, Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls, and Pushing Daisies writer Bryan Fuller, is a sculpture called Gold Digga.

Not one that reflects well on me, but one that bears airing as proof that HannibalвЂ™s Bryan Fuller is a gentleman, a scholar, and вЂ“ why not вЂ“ an acrobat.
