Scott Hicks Interview

Scott Hicks is known for directing movies that are sensitive and moving. So when it came time to find a director to bring Nicholas Sparks' best selling novel The Lucky One to the big screen, Hicks was the perfect man for the job. In the film, Zac Efron plays a soldier who, while fighting in Iraq, finds a photo of a woman amidst the rubble of a skirmish. He falls in love with her picture, and decides when he arrives back in the States to try to find her.

Bonnie Laufer from Tribute spoke with Scott in Los Angeles about why he was so drawn to this story, his casting choices and what makes him so sensitive.
