Interview (1-year) [MAGAZINE SUBSCRIPTION] [PRINT]

Product Description

Amazon.com Review

The brainchild of Andy Warhol back in the heyday of the '70s club culture, Interview magazine has morphed from newsletter and photo essay of the Studio 54 set to the arbiter of what defines cutting edge for the nation (well, at least those in the nation who believe New York to be the center of the universe). It's magazine chic at its highest. When you pick up the magazine, don't look for Julia Roberts; look for the woman who will eclipse Julia in the next five years. The concept of the magazine couldn't be simpler--Q&A format, accompanied by photographs--but the Q is often provided by celebrity interviewers, and the A is usually extremely insightful, intriguing, and candid. And the photographs are the crème de la crème, by A-list lensers like Bruce Weber, Herb Ritts, and Annie Leibovitz (if you don't know them by name, this is definitely not the magazine for you). Nudity and profanity may put off some readers; others will be pleasantly titillated. --Mark Englehart

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Warhol, December 12, 2001

By	Cristina Miller (The Mil) - See all my reviews

Andy Warhol started the magazine "interview" a long time ago, but it still maintains a very warhol tone.

the magazine is exactly what it says it is: interviews, but these arent the run of the mill. many will be very concise, getting to detailed points, and you learn much more about a person than you do in the standard magazine interview.

a few things i like about this mag:
1) dirt cheap
2) the paper: its very matte, not glossy, and kind of thick. it makes the pictures look awesome.
3) they give you a free calendar of photos
4) the photography. its all very current, kind of raw, but alot of fun.
5) the pages are rather large, and make excellent gift wrap. many pictures contain a whole page, and alot of the ads are in the same form.

this magazine is very visually oriented, and is recommended for people who are interested in and are up to date in the music-movie world.

4.0 out of 5 stars Finally something fresh., June 9, 2004

By	H3@+h (VT) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

I know "Interview" has been around awhile, but I just recently got into it. In short, if you're into the arts, it's your magazine. It touches on music, movies, fashion, and everything inbetween. And often the interviews of celebrities are done by other celebs, like "Jim Jarmusch" doing a Q&A with "The White Stripes", just like they're sitting in a room chatting, very casual. I like that. Also the photography is tops, and often takes up the whole page (good mini-posters). They're good about not exposing the same old people too, lots of fresh faces, usually cool. Hey, if it's good enough for "Andy Warhol", it can't be bad, huh?

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Magazine, November 2, 2004

By	Anthony M. Amato (Durham, NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Interview is a small magazine with big ambitions. All the latest news in entertainment, fashion, and politics can be found within it's colorful pages. The photography is amazing, and grand in scale, although the magazine is packed full of ads (which are equally as colorful I might add). This is NOT entertainment weekly- Interview is the indi-film of magazines, and the people and films it covers are not usually those found in typical magazines. Instead of focusing on the actor du jour, Interview covers the up & coming, the soon to be, and the undiscovered. The interview formats are fascenating and unique, as most are done by celebrities, of celebrities. If one is looking for typical hollywood gossip, Warhol's masterpiece is not for them. At such a cheap price, Interview is a gem that is yet undiscovered by many. I highly recommend it!
