Yeah & he co-wrote/ co-produced Eastwood’s LETTERS FROM IWO JIMA & FLAGS OF OUR FATHERS.He also co-created the show WALKER TEXAS RANGER.He really does engage the audience & I wish his show THE BLACK DONNELLYS hadn’t been cancelled.
these interviews are great. And at a great price – free. The interviewer seems fine in my opinion. Have you ever tired getting a straight answer out of a screenwriter? They’re neurotic. Self doubting. And consumed by fear…well, the good ones are anyway.
