"SOMETIMES WHEN YOU WATCH HIS MOVIES, YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE IN ANOTHER WORLD"
Costume designer Amy Roth, the niece of costume designer Ann Roth, was interviewed recently by LRM's Gig Patta. "You have an amazing career," Patta asks Roth at one point, "with working from a comic book like The Avengers to American Gangster to even TV shows like Madame Secretary. What kind of projects do you love to work on? You have such a diverse career."Roth responds, "It may sound negative, but working in the Marvel community can sometimes be difficult. You are working with a group of people who already created something. They're big and wonderful movies, but things are dictated from the Marvel comics down to you.
"My idea of a great piece is something along those lines—maybe fantasy. I love period movies. But, after doing this period movie, I would like to do something more inventive and people don’t tell you on what somebody wore 'cause you haven’t invented it in that world yet.
"It would be something like Blade Runner. Somebody like Ridley Scott, who likes to invent his own world. Or even somebody like Brian De Palma. Sometimes when you watch his movies, you feel like you’re in another world. I like to create your own reality.
"That would be fun right now for me."
Amy Roth's aunt, Ann Roth, has worked with De Palma on Dressed To Kill, Blow Out, and The Bonfire Of The Vanities.
