The Originals #23 Peter Bogdanovich

The Originals - A podcast by Andrew Goldman: journalist, interviewer, busybody, LA Mag, Vulture, WSJ Mag, Town & Country

In light of Peter Bogdanovich’s January 6 death, “The Originals” releases a never-before-heard 2019 interview in which the Oscar-nominated director narrates his own story. Candid, shocking, and often hilarious, Bogdanovich shares tales of the rapturous reception to The Last Picture Show, the sex that changed his life, the Cybill affair that ended his marriage, the mistakes that bedeviled his career, his affection for Singapore’s hookers, and why he wasn’t broken up when Billy Wilder died. Also, discussed: the shocking 1980 murder of Dorothy Stratten—and how he ended up marrying the sister he met at 11.  A mind-blowing hour with a legend.
