Comments on: Playing Columbine: Interview with Director Danny Ledonne http://blog.spout.com/2008/11/19/playing-columbine-interview-with-director-danny-ledonne/ Daily coverage of what is truly interesting in the film world Fri, 27 Nov 2009 12:41:09 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: DannyLedonne http://blog.spout.com/2008/11/19/playing-columbine-interview-with-director-danny-ledonne/#comment-117546 DannyLedonne Fri, 28 Nov 2008 06:07:25 +0000 http://blog.spout.com/?p=7456#comment-117546 Thanks for the interview, Kevin. Quote correction to your introduction. You had written: "However, I would have at least liked to see some reaction from the victims or perhaps parents or significant others that were involved." Roger Kovaks, friend of the late Rachel Scott, is featured in the film. Richard Castaldo, now paralyzed from the shooting, is featured in the film. Additional interviews with other relatives were sought but, as you can imagine, most were not willing to take part in a documentary about SCMRPG. Their quoted comments about the game "trivializing" the shooting are represented throughout, however. Thanks for the interview, Kevin. Quote correction to your introduction. You had written:

I first heard of it when people were withdrawing their games left and right from the slamdance game festival.
