Waiting For Guffman with Rebecca Thomas

Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast. In episode 36 Sam is joined by writer and director Rebecca Thomas (Electrick Children, Stranger Things, Limetown). Rebecca's new show When The Streetlights Go On, starring Sophie Thatcher, Chosen Jacobs, Tony Hale, Mark Duplass and Queen Latifah, is available to watch on Quibi.  Rebecca has chosen Christopher Guest's classic 1996 comedy Waiting For Guffman (84 minutes). The majority of the film is improvised and stars Christopher Guest, Eugene Levy, Catherine O'Hara, Fred Willard and Parker Posey.  Rebecca and Sam talk about the challenges of community theatre, Christopher Guest's signature mockumentary style and that time Rebecca shared an elevator Catherine O'Hara.  Thank you for downloading.
