Episode 163: Rex Pickett and the Making of Sideways 20 Years Later
Manage episode 410457026 series 1294824
20 years after the release of the award-winning book, Sideaways, author Rex Pickett reflects on its film adaptation and poignant statement against Merlot producers.
Like Miles Raymond, the main character in the book and film, Pickett was an unpublished author living in L.A. and a devoted disciple of Pinot (which he spent hours talking about with Richard Sanford). Listen as he shares how the success of Sideways launched an unexpected journey into the wine world and the creation of a beloved cinema classic.
And before you ask: No Merlot was consumed in the making of this episode.
