For this episode, I’m joined by Jonathan Russell Clark — author of, most recently, the book Skateboard — to discuss the 2000 film Wonder Boys, about the personal and professional crises that come to a head in one writer’s life.
Discussed in this episode: what was and was not changed in adapting Michael Chabon’s novel; great titles of fictional books; the nature of the nonfiction novel; whether Misery falls into the purview of this podcast; this film’s secret message about the importance of editors.
Wonder Boys is available digitally at the usual places where you can rent a movie digitally; I believe there's also a Blu-Ray out in the world.
On a personal note: I am glad to report that I loved this movie every bit as much as I did when I first saw it, albeit for some different reasons. (It also contains possibly my favorite Robert Downey Jr. performance.)
