230. Elaine in May - A New Leaf (1971 with Carrie Courogen)
Description
The sun's out and we're kicking off our Elaine in May series! The entire month is devoted to the female filmmaker and we're kicking things off with a look at her 1971 debut feature A New Leaf with May biographer Carrie Courogen.
Courogen discusses May's foray into directing, the challenges of making her debut feature, and how it started to show the cracks that would see May exit Hollywood. We also talk about her mad brilliance and the humor of Walter Matthau.
