Mikey and Nicky (1976) (w/ Natalie Gardner)

Our guest this week is actress Natalie Gardner, who helps us discuss the 1976 film Mikey and Nicky by trailblazing director and legend Elaine May and starring Peter Falk and John Cassavetes. The film focuses on the relationship of two gangsters over a single night as they try to evade a hitman. We charter it's trouble production, as cost spiralled out of control and then controversial release, then reedit and re-release to it being seen as a cult classic. We also discuss the career of Elaine May and how her experiences match with female film directors in Hollywood. We also talk to Natalie about the theatre industry right now and her portrayal of Cher.
