LOW WINTER SUN - AMC TV: ATHENA KARKANIS INTERVIEW

by Eli Rosenberg
August 23, 2013


Athena Karkanis, who plays Dani Khalil on AMC’s Low Winter Sun, talks about the quality she shares with her character and her love for Detroit...

athena karkanis lowwintersun photo athena_karkanis_lowwintersun_zps695d1f78.jpg

... Q: Dani is a tough lady. Is that something you look for in roles?

Athena Karkanis: "Not necessarily, no. It’s an interesting part because of how she plays into the whole fabric of the story. In terms of it being Detroit and her being Arab-American — it’s just an interesting time, given the post-9/11 climate. She’s a very non-stereotypical character, which I found was refreshing. It was nice that it’s sort of like, “Oh look, they’re not just terrorists, they’re actually Americans like you and me.” Well, I’m Canadian, so not really me, but…'


Q: In Episode 2, there’s a great scene when Dani speaks in Arabic to the corner store owner. Was that difficult to prepare for?

Athena Karkanis: "The little trick under my belt is that I speak a bunch of languages, and Arabic is one of them. I also speak French, Italian, Spanish, German –- only so so -– and, of course, English. Everyone in my family is quite multilingual. We traveled a bit growing up. I went to French schools. I actually spent some time in Egypt and learned it there, most recently in December 2011, about a year after the revolution. I rented a flat in Cairo and spent about a month there. The thing about Arabic is that from country to country, the dialect and the accent are very different. I don’t know how many viewers will pick up on it, but the accent and dialect that I was doing was Egyptian, because that’s what I thought my character was. And that happens to be the kind of Arabic that I speak. I’m a bit of a Heinz 57. But I’m partially Egyptian..."

THE BIG SKY - TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES VIDEO: MOVIE TRAILER - AIRS SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 2013 AT 2:00AM

One of my favorite movies. Definitely set your DVR's to record this wonderful movie!

Synopsis from IDMB, and written by Jim Beaver:

[In 1830] Frontiersmen Boone Boone and Jim Deakins (Dewey Martin, Kirk Douglas) join up with Boone's Uncle Zeb (Arthur Hunnicutt) on a fur-trading expedition into the uncharted Blackfoot territory. The expedition's leader, the Frenchman Jourdonnais (Steven Geray), has a plan for succeeding where no white man has traded before: he plans to return a kidnapped Blackfoot princess, Teal Eye (Elizabeth Threatt), to her people and thus to win their gratitude and trade. Guided by Teal Eye and a crazy warrior named Poordevil (Hank Worden), the trappers travel upriver, only to find their greatest obstacle is not Indians, but a ruthless pack of fur traders led by MacMasters (Paul Frees) and his henchman Streak (Jim Davis). Along the way, Boone and Jim Deakins both fall under the spell of the beautiful Teal Eye, and their friendship begins to crack.

The Big Sky was directed by Howard Hawks; screenplay by Dudley Nichols and based on the novel by A.B. Guthrie; original music by Dimitri Tiomkin.

Cast includes Kirk Douglas, Dewey Martin, Elizabeth Threatt, Arthur Hunnicutt, Buddy Baer, Steven Geray, Henri Letondal, Hank Worden, Jim Davis, Iron Eyes Cody, Frank DeKova, Paul Frees, Robert Hunter and Jay Novello.
