Summary

"The Lesson" had its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival, where it earned solid reviews for its strong performances from Daryl McCormack, Richard E. Grant, and Julie Delpy. Both McCormack and Grant were kind enough to spend a few minutes talking with us about their roles in the film, the importance of authorship, their feelings on the WGA strike, and more. Please take a moment to listen to the interviews below and check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from Bleecker Street. Thank you, and enjoy!
