Today, the Kicking the Seat Podcast looks at the latest big-screen adaptation of a Nick Hornby novel, Juliet, Naked! Joining Ian for the first time on-mic is his wife and certified Hornbyologist*, Darlena Simmons! Why did it take four screenwriters to translate this story about a music obsessive, his beleaguered spouse, and the reclusive rock star who drops into their lives unexpectedly? And how does the movie navigate the excising of some of the novel's most crucial characters and themes?
Find out as Ian and Darlena invite you into their acoustically challenged kitchen for a funny and frustrated conversation about one of their favorite authors, whose work Hollywood still can't seem to capture.
Episode 344 is a labor of love!
