On this weeks episode with have Director and Writer Noah Baumbach.

Dom Lenoir (Dombach meets Baumbach!!) sits down with the Oscar-nominated filmmaker Noah Baumbach (Barbie, The Squid and The Whale, Marriage Story) to dive into his stunning new film, Jay Kelly. The director explains his intimate writing process for building emotionally complex characters, the challenge of directing superstars like George Clooney and Adam Sandler, and how he uses Hollywood fame as a device for poignant dramedy. Baumbach shares exclusive insight on his unique collaborative relationships, the film's visual style, and the lessons learned from Marriage Story to Jay Kelly. A masterclass in screenwriting and auteur filmmaking.

"Jay Kelly" is a dramedy that follows famous movie actor Jay Kelly (George Clooney) as he embarks on an unexpected, profound journey through Europe with his devoted manager Ron (Adam Sandler). The film is a self-reflective look at celebrity, legacy, regret, and the toll a public life takes on family.
