Sidney Lumet: A Conversation with Maura Spiegel

After reading Maura Spiegel's terrific new biography, Sidney Lumet: A Life, Dan invited her on the show to talk about her work. She, Mike, and Dan discuss Lumet's growing up in a world of theater and television, what his triumphs have in common, and some ideas about why too many viewers might take his talent for granted. Come spend a few minutes with us talking to a great biographer about the great director of The Verdict, Prince of the City, and Network--all covered in previous episodes.  Please subscribe to the show wherever you get your podcasts and follow us on YouTube, Twitter and Letterboxd.
