his week, Ira spoke with Joseph McBride, author of "George Cukor's People: Acting for a Master Director." In this celluloid episode of “Ira’s Everything Bagel,” Joesph talks about what made Cukor unique; how he worked through his actors; how he used the camera elo-quently; why Cukor believed in “fidelity to the text”; why he was elusive; living the double life; dealing with the boundaries of behavior; why the Hollywood production code was a spur to creativity; and why a great director handles every person differently.
