Wayne Kramer is making his moviemaking
dreams a reality. After two indie features-Blazeland (which he calls "an
epic of misfortune unto itself") and Crossing Over-Wayne Kramer
is making a name (and career) for himself with The Cooler, a gritty
tale of the Las Vegas underworld starring William H. Macy, Alec Baldwin,
Maria Bello and Ron Livingston. On the eve of the film's release, Kramer
spoke with MM about his goals as a moviemaker, being a
collaborator and what it's like to go up against Alec Baldwin.
