Griffin Dunne

from Back To One Hosted by Filmmaker Magazine

Griffin Dunne has balanced acting, directing, and producing for over 40 years in this business. "Chilly Scenes of Winter," "An American Werewolf in London," "After Hours," "Practical Magic," "This is Us," to name just a small handful of his credits. For his latest, "Ex-Husbands," he delivers a performance revelatory in its ease, miraculously blending lightness and dread. It's so much fun, and even inspirational, to simply watch him walk around as this character, carrying this load. Hopefully, this is the start of a new chapter: Dunne as the contemplative man of a certain age who has seen it all. On this episode, he shares his favorite piece of direction, talks about how producing affected his acting work, tells the story of discovering he's a Chekhovian actor, explains why it all comes down to listening and being in the moment, and much more. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft. Follow Back To One on Instagram
