Actor John Hawkes and writer-director Sean Durkin discuss the film "Martha Marcy May Marlene." It’s an unsettling psychological portrait of a young woman who has run away from a cult-like community on a farm in upstate New York and moves in with her sister and struggles to rejoin normal society. Hawkes, who was nominated for an Oscar for his performance as Teardrop in last year’s Winter’s Bone, plays the community’s charismatic and manipulative leader. It’s Sean Durkin’s first film, and it won the Best Director Award at Sundance and the Cannes Prix de la Jeunesse.
