111: Orson Welles, Barbra Streisand and the Other Roger Smiths
Description
During his days at the Criterion Collection Roger helped pioneer the director's comments now so common on DVDs. But these were on laser discs, way before DVDs came along. Roger tells what it was like to get a famous auteur like Orson Welles to help publicize the laser disc version of "Citizen Kane." Needless to say an offer of food was involved and Roger found out that his hero had feet of clay. He also tells us what it was like to deal with Barbra Streisand on the laser disc version of "Prince of Tides" and why you make want to think twice before doing any business with "Babs." Plus we'll hear about the other Roger Smiths, yes there are others, but they're nowhere near as interesting as ours.
