Description: #SoundofMetal, starring #RizAhmed, is gathering Oscar-buzz, especially for the 38-year-old actor's affecting performance as a punk rock drummer whose life is thrown into a tailspin when he begins losing his hearing. The film's director #DariusMarder (who co-wrote #ThePlaceBeyondthePines with #DerekCianfrance) talks to #RajeevMasand about his extraordinary leading man, and what it took to give the viewer the experience of literally going inside the protagonist's head to 'hear' what he was hearing as he begins to go deaf. Sound of Metal is streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
