Interview: Death of a Ladies’ Man’s Gabriel Byrne and Matthew Bissonnette

Gabriel Byrne Matt Bissonnette video interview Death of a Ladies' Man

Inspired by the work of Leonard Cohen, and set to some of his most beloved music, Death of a Ladies’ Man tells the story of a carousing college professor (Gabriel Byrne) whose life takes a series of unimaginable turns, and all the old stories are given a new twist, when he begins to have surreal hallucinations and learns he may not be long for this world.

I’ve long been an admirer of acclaimed actor Gabriel Byrne’s work on screen (In Treatment, Vikings, The Usual Suspects…I could go on and on highlighting the projects in which he delivered searing performances), and I was fascinated by Matt Bissonnette’s cinematic love letter to Leonard Cohen, so it was a pleasure to chat over Zoom video with the incredibly talented pair.

Death of a Ladies’ Man is available March 12 to rent or buy on the Apple TV app/iTunes and other VOD platforms
