The Edge with Mark Thompson

Illeana Douglas Part Deux


Listen Later

Our conversation with Illeana Douglas is broken into two episodes because of it's length. This is part two.

 Illeana Douglas has starred in films from Goodfellas and Cape Fear to To Die For and Alive and TV shows like Six Feet Under.  Plus, she created and hosted her own successful comedy and breakthrough TV show that took place in an IKEA store which she discusses.

Right now, she's hosting a TV series on the TCM network.

Her life in and around movies makes for a world that you just can't hear enough about.

Illeana's grandfather was a two time Oscar winner and yet she grew up going hungry many days in a family that had no money (discussed in the first episode).

Why is Dennis Hopper to blame for this?  Illeana told us about that in the last episode.

Here, she discusses going hungry on the movie, ALIVE and doing a talk show in an real IKEA store

Her book is I Blame Dennis Hopper And Other Stories From a Life Lived In and Out of the Movies.

Josh Weinstein (J.Elvis Weinstein) joins Mark Thompson for the conversation.
