[edit] Interviews
In a recent interview with Screen Comment, Tierney told film critic Sam Weisberg, "I’m a big fan of classic noir, I’m a big Hitchcock fan, and all those movies are really funny. I'm also inspired by the contemporary versions of those movies, like Shallow Grave and The Talented Mr. Ripley. They’re actually really funny, as well."[3]
