It's time to explore the World According to Glenn. I'm Kevin Jacobsen, Glenn Close is my favorite actress, and this show is all about exploring the career of one of the finest actors of her generation. Each episode, I'm joined by a guest as we dive into one of Glenn's movies, TV shows, or stage productions, going chronologically through her career, discussing her performance, and assessing the project itself.

This week, we're covering the 1989 adoption drama Immediate Family! Andrew Carden of The Awards Connection and AwardsWatch joins me to discuss Glenn choosing this small-scale drama as a cooldown from Fatal Attraction and Dangerous Liaisons, how Mary Stuart Masterson is the film's clear MVP, and how the film fits in with the other baby boom movies of the late-'80s.
