Sujewa Ekanayake & Amanda Roy Haynes This past Saturday afternoon filmmaker and prolific film blogger Sujewa Ekanayake and his novelist girlfriend Amanda Roy Haynes find themselves at the doorstep of my condominium.

For the last several weeks, Ekanayake has been interviewing East Coast film bloggers for the aptly named feature documentary The Indie Film Bloggers: A Portrait of a Community. I'm the fifth in his line of blogites behind Chuck Tryon, Brandon Harris, Tambay Obenson and Brian Geldin; also the first female of the set, a fact which he tells me will soon be amended.

In the following podcast interview, Ekanayake and I speak about the progress of the documentary, the cultivation of cinematic taste and his response to an Indywood falling sky.
