Every thriller turns into a techno thriller author Sean French part 1
Over the past 30 years books and movies have slowly become less realistic as technology has got more involved. A character getting lost does not really happen anymore as they can pull out their smartphone and use Google Maps. Scenes of characters searching in a library are now replaced with searching via Google or online archives. Ronan talks to thriller writer Sean French about this and more.
Sean talks about how technology has changed books and movies, why new thrillers will be set in the 70’s and 80’s, how to make thrillers dramatic, the terminator, how technology makes it easier to find people, the use of technology in films. Sean also talks about Star Trek, 2001 Space Odyssey, the godfather trilogy, Coppola making art in the midst of chaos, and why 90% of making a film is casting.
