Lea Thompson

Lea Thompson has a lot of wisdom to share. Her work as an actor spans three decades with hit films like the "Back To The Future" trilogy and "Some Kind of Wonderful" to successful television shows like "Caroline in the City" and "Switched at Birth." She recently started a second chapter as a director. Her first feature film "The Year of Spectacular Men" (opening Friday June 15th) stars her daughters Madelyn and Zoey Deutch and was written by Madelyn. We talk about how this true family affair was stitched together with nothing but love, and how actors need to be "director-proof" & "writer-proof," and why, only now, she finally considers herself deserving of a place at the table as an artist.
