GGACP celebrates the birthday of a friend and a recurring guest, Oscar-nominated screenwriter Michael H. Weber ("The Disaster Artist," "500 Days of Summer," " The Fault in Our Stars") with this CLASSIC of a frequently hilarious interview from 2018. In this episode, Michael discusses the studio development process, the many eccentricities of Marlon Brando (and Tommy Wiseau), the cinema of Richard Curtis and the importance of truth in storytelling. Also, Jane Fonda takes a seat, Bill Murray thanks Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman pursues Hannibal Lecter and the boys list their favorite romantic comedies (and romantic comedy cliches). PLUS: Evel Knievel! "The Knack...and How to Get It"! Gilbert hangs with Paul Rudd! In praise of "Jerry Maguire"! And Michael swaps punchlines with Steve Martin!
