Summary

One of the most likable — and reliably good — actors in the business reflects on his child stardom, how he then experienced a dark decade before re-emerging as the industry’s go-to straight man in comedies and why it means so much to him to now be able to juggle acting and directing. But first: Booth Moore, THR’s Style & Fashion News Director, joins Scott to discuss the recent Met Gala, the ongoing Cannes Film Festival and the upcoming Royal Wedding, as well as Vogue's controversial new profile of Marchesa co-founder Georgina Chapman, aka Mrs. Harvey Weinstein. Credits: Hosted by Scott Feinberg, recorded and produced by Matthew Whitehurst. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:14.0	podcast. I'm the host Scott Feinberg and my guest today is one of the most
0:17.9	likable and reliably good actors in the business and he has been for nearly 40 years. In the 1980s he was a child star whose face was
