Donald Sutherland Talks Hunger Games with Starburst Magazine

In an interview with Starburst Magazine, Hunger Games actor Donald Sutherland talked about his role as President Snow and how his acting career had started.

So the film more than lived up to your expectations then?

I am overwhelmed by it. It almost makes me weep. I just loved it; it’s important for this fragmented society that we live in. And it’s not just the United States but the world in general. And I do so hope Barack Obama gets re-elected.

It’s almost as if The Hunger Games could end up being the ultimate reality show, for real.

Donald Sutherland’s Letter to Hunger Games Director Gary Ross

After reading the Hunger Games trilogy, Donald Sutherland wrote a letter to director Gary Ross sharing his insight about President Snow, the character he played in the movie.

Dear Gary Ross: 

Power. That’s what this is about? Yes? Power and the forces that are manipulated by the powerful men and bureaucracies trying to maintain control and possession of that power? 

Power perpetrates war and oppression to maintain itself until it finally topples over with the bureaucratic weight of itself and sinks into the pages of history (except in Texas), leaving lessons that need to be learned unlearned.  

Power corrupts, and, in many cases, absolute power makes you really horny. Clinton, Chirac, Mao, Mitterrand.
