Henry Jaglom On Game Changers With Vicki Abelson

No matter how many times I sit down with Filmmaker Henry Jaglom, he’s always got a slew of new and stupendous stories to tell. This time he shared more than a few which he said he’s never told before, and they’re doozies. Raised by sophisticated, successful parents, Henry’s mother encouraged his love of theatre, nurturing his creative, empathetic nature, in contrast to his father’s keen business acumen. Showbiz called. First as a comedian with his pal, Ritchie Pryor, then as an actor (Gidget, The Flying Nun). He gave up comedy when Richard was funnier and acting when his friend________ scored the part he was up for. I can’t ruin it… it’s too good. He was asked by Bert Schneider to do an edit on Easy Rider. How that came to be, and who his editing partner was, is, well, great stuff. There are girlfriends Georgia Brown, Karen Black, Brenda Vaccaro, Tuesday Weld, Natalie Wood… a first told story about his meeting Dudley Moore and then introducing him to Tuesday. Meeting Orson Wells. How their friendship began, the films they did together, the meals they shared for years, recently transcribed in Henry’s, My Lunches with Orson. There’s Peter Bogdanovich, Paul Mazursky, Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor, Jessica Walter, Dennis Hopper, Jack Nicholson, Bob Rafelson, Hal Prince, the impactful director, whose name slipped for the moment… winning an Oscar, producing anti-war shows with Jane Fonda, painting the sign for the Original Improv, sketching his friends before they were famous, and now getting a book deal for that art. His films, 21 of them. With a dream for 4 more, he explains why. And a book, 19 years in the writing, with an offer, made to anyone who comes up with the perfect title. If you love movies, and who doesn’t… and the people who make them, this time with Henry will thrill.
