Jason Reitman is my favorite director right now! He's smart, witty, and his films have all been memorable. "Up in the Air" is one of my favorite films this year! Definitely!

In this interview, we talked about:

*** How I'm still flying high from watching the film
*** Multi-layered, multi-textured film
*** Genesis of "Up in the Air" from the book to the screen
*** Jason started writing this film as a single guy, and finished it as a married dad with a mortgage
*** He wrote the film in Palm Springs
*** Why he respects the Palm Springs International Film Festival
*** The BEST line in the film was written by his dad, Ivan Reitman ("Ghostbusters" films), who also produced "Up in the Air"
*** Likable characters
*** Jason Reitman diagrams the Modern State of Junket Journalism as seen on Gawker.com
