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, former podcast host and actress obsessive Steffi Acain joins me to dive into Glenn's noble performance in the World War II drama Paradise Road! We discuss the stacked cast including Frances McDormand and Cate Blanchett, how Glenn operates as the de facto lead of the ensemble, the film's lack of a compelling spark, and so much more!
