Episode: Interview With "The Idea Of You" Director/Writer Michael Showalter
Description: "The Idea Of You" had its world premiere at the 2024 SXSW Film Festival, where it received positive reviews for the chemistry between stars Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine and its mature writing and commentary on age-gap relationships, self-worth, prejudice towards middle-aged women, and more. Director and co-writer Michael Showalter ("Spoiler Alert") returned to the podcast and was kind enough to spend a few minutes speaking with us about his work on the film. Please be sure to check out the film, which will be available to stream on Amazon Prime Video on May 2nd. Thank you, and enjoy!<...
