Today, I’m thrilled to announce my interview with Oscar nominee Chris Sarandon. Tune in to hear some of the stories of his legendary career, including how he fell in love with Joanna Gleason during NICK AND NORA, bonding with the cast of THE ROTHSCHILDS, co-starring with Rex Harrison in THE DEVIL’S DISCIPLE, his Oscar campaign for DOG DAY AFTERNOON, the cult appeal of THE PRINCESS BRIDE, why he felt limited as a replacement in TWO GENTLEMEN OF VERONA, learning from Colleen Dewhurst and George C. Scott, why he wept every time he watched THE LIGHT IN THE PIAZZA, the strangeness of putting together MARCO POLO SINGS A SOLO, why CENSORED SCENES FROM KING KONG didn’t take off on Broadway, his collaboration with Ulu Grosbard, advising James Ivory on STREETS OF NEW YORK, and so much more. Don’t miss this in-depth conversation with a veteran of stage and screen.
