Show Notes

Michael Fassbender describes HUNGER as the work of which he's most proud. He endured malnourishment and physical abuse to faithfully portray Bobby Sands during his hunger strike inside Maze Prison in 1981. Steve McQueen offers an unflinching look at the violence endured at the hands of the British government, and documents the reality of the strikers' and the guards' existence inside the prison.
