Greta GerwigEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

Director Maggie Gyllenhaal discusses her new film, The Bride!, with fellow Director Greta Gerwig in a Q&A at the DGA theater in New York. In the conversation, she discusses the influence of 1930s cinema on the film’s themes, using dance sequences as a medium for her characters to express complicated emotions, and working with her Costume Designer to create striking looks for the cast. Set in an alternate 1930’s Chicago, the film follows Ida, a murdered woman brought back to life to be the monster Frankenstein’s companion. Ida’s second chance sparks a whirlwind of romance, police interest, and radical social change. See photos and a summary of this event below: https://www.dga.org/events/2026/may2026/thebride_qna_0326

The Munsons welcome back OG Munson Warren Hicks alongside 7-time guest Munson Matti Groll—better known online as FlygonHG—for a deep dive into the fascinating, sometimes confounding career of Greta Gerwig. For most of the crew, this episode doubles as a crash course in the Mumblecore movement and Gerwig’s central role in defining it, setting the stage for a career that would eventually take a sharp and surprising turn. We can’t help but fixate on what the year 2011 did to her acting trajectory with No Strings Attached and Arthur , and after revisiting a large chunk of her filmography, we collectively question whether there’s enough range—either in project choice or performance—for her to truly stand out as an actor. That debate leads us into tracing how those acting decisions likely shaped her later work behind the camera, and how her writing abilities allow certain characters to feel vividly alive even when the performances themselves are understated. We explore her unmistakable inspiration from Woody Allen and express genuine surprise she hasn’t collaborated more with Wes Anderson. Along the way, we once again find ourselves consulting one of our favorite websites, DoesTheDogDie.com , for two Gerwig films, and we speculate wildly about what her upcoming take on Narnia might look like. By the end, we’re left wrestling with how to score a career split between acting and directing—and whether those skillsets should even be judged the same way. How does she rank on the Munson Meter? Listen to find out.

Nothing has been heard from Matthew Aldrich since he was announced as the “creative architect” of Netflix’s Chronicles of Narnia adaptations in 2019… until now : I had a very specific idea about what I wanted to do with the Narnia material. I had laid out for [Netflix] a strategy of film and series as a way to adapt the seven books in a way that was both sort of respectful, but also not precious, you know, and try to sort of update them in some fun ways. And ultimately that’s not the direction Netflix wanted to go.” Matthew Aldrich, Script Apart podcast Are we happy Netflix decided to go with Greta Gerwig instead?

Career Q&A with Greta Gerwig, Writer/Director of LADY BIRD, on January 10, 2018. Moderated by Sara Vilkomerson, Entertainment Weekly. GRETA GERWIG has rapidly emerged as one of Hollywood’s most engaging actresses, screenwriters, and directors, most recently writing and directing LADY BIRD. The film has appeared on over 200 “Top Ten” lists for 2017, and has won Best Picture from the New York Film Critics Circle and Gerwig has won Best Director from the National Board of Review. The film is nominated for three Screen Actors Guild Awards. Gerwig was last seen in 20th CENTURY WOMEN alongside Annette Bening and Elle Fanning from director Mike Mills. Gerwig received a Critics’ Choice Award nomination in the category of “Best Supporting Actress” for her portrayal of “Abbie,” a photographer who is being treated for cervical cancer. Last year, Gerwig also starred in Pablo Larrain’s JACKIE alongside Natalie Portman and Peter Sarsgaard; Todd Solondz’s WIENER-DOG opposite Danny DeVito, Ellen Burstyn, and Kieran Culkan; and Rebecca Miller’s romantic dramedy MAGGIE’S PLAN opposite Ethan Hawke and Julianne Moore. In 2015, Gerwig starred in MISTRESS AMERICA, a comedy that she co-wrote with director Noah Baumbach, which premiered to rave reviews at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. Gerwig’s previous collaboration with Baumbach, FRANCES HA, earned her Golden Globe and Broadcast Film Critics Association Award nominations in the category of “Outstanding Lead Actress in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy.” The film, which also earned an Independent Spirit Award nomination for “Best Feature,” premiered at the 2012 Telluride Film Festival, Toronto Film Festival, and New York Film Festival. Gerwig first received critical acclaim for her breakout role as “Florence” in GREENBERG, which marked her first collaboration with writer/director Noah Baumbach. In the film, she starred opposite Ben Stiller and her performance earned her several nominations including a Gotham Award nomination for “Breakthrough Performance” and an Independent Spirit Award nomination for “Best Female Lead.” Other film credits include Barry Levinson’s THE HUMBLING opposite Al Pacino and Dianne Wiest, Woody Allen’s TO ROME WITH LOVE opposite Alec Baldwin, Jesse Eisenberg and Ellen Page; ARTHUR opposite Russell Brand and Helen Mirren; the romantic comedy NO STRINGS ATTACHED with Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher; Whit Stillman’s comedy DAMSELS IN DISTRESS; and Fox Searchlight’s LOLA VERSUS. A darling of the independent film scene, Gerwig’s prior credits include Ti West’s “art-house horror film” HOUSE OF THE DEVIL; the Duplass brothers’ genre-bender BAGHEAD; Joe Swanberg’s HANNAH TAKES THE STAIRS as a writer and actress, and NIGHTS AND WEEKENDS which she co-wrote and co-directed. Gerwig graduated Magna Cum Laude from Barnard College and currently resides in New York City.

Hot in awards season, BEHIND THE LENS, continues to look at the best and brightest in cinema, in films both big and small. And this week it doesn't get much bigger than Academy Award nominee GRETA GERWIG. But filmmakers all start somewhere and also joining the show this week are JAY DOCKENDORF and KENNY SULEIMANAGISH who are headed to Sundance Film Festival for the first time. If you missed #BTLRadioShow live, you definitely want to catch up now! Joining us live in the top half of the show, take a listen as we welcome Oscar nominee and writer/director GRETA GERWIG talking LITTLE WOMEN, which picked up six Oscar nominations this year!! The first time I interviewed Greta was for the Duplass Brothers film, "Baghead", and it has been a joy to follow her trajectory and catch up with her on various projects over the past decade-plus as she moved from acting into writing and directing. There's a reason LITTLE WOMEN nabbed six Oscar nominations this year – Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Score, Best Costume Design, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Picture – and that reason is Greta and her vision. She is thoughtful, thorough, and meticulous at every level of production, as you'll hear during our conversation. And it is the sum of all the parts that is what led the film to its Best Picture nomination. Listen as we talk about the winning storytelling triumvirate of Jacqueline Durran and her costuming, Jess Gonchor's production design, and Y0rick Le Saux's telling and beautiful cinematography, plus Alexandre Desplat's exquisite score. But we don't stop there. While much attention this season has been paid to the lead actors of LITTLE WOMEN, how about the strength of story for supporting characters Aunt March, Mr. Lawrence, and publisher Dashwood, and their acting counterparts, Meryl Streep, Chris Cooper, and Tracey Letts? We dig into that aspect of the film as well. And, perhaps one of my personal faves about this film, Greta chose to shoot on film. Her considerations for shooting on film, and her own personal experiences as an actor working with film and digital, leads to great insight into Greta as a filmmaker. On the heels of our conversation with Greta, writer/director JAY DOCKENDORF and cinematographer KENNY SULEIMANAGISH join us talking about their new short film making its World Premiere at Sundance this month, THREE DEATHS. Adapted by Jay from Tolstoy's acclaimed 1859 short story of the same name and its rumination on life and death, like "Little Women", THREE DEATHS is shot on film. Listen as Jay talks about the appeal of Tolstoy 160 years after publication and his approach to adapting the written word for celluloid, while Jay and Kenny talk about color palette, structure, handheld camera vs sticks, sound design and the beauty of silence, their filmmaking collaboration, and why they chose to also shoot on film over digital. It's interesting to hear the perspectives of Jay and Kenny with their approach to their short film in comparison to Greta's considerations for her feature. http://behindthelensonline.net http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com
