## Caption

On Wednesday, actor, writer, and director Tim Blake Nelson (LEAVES OF GRASS, THE BALLAD OF BUSTER SCRUGGS, LINCOLN) joins for an episode featuring a wide range of topics. Reflecting on his parallel career as a playwright,  we learn why Tim doesn’t direct his own plays, and he muses on the different demands of conceptualizing a story for the stage versus one for the screen. Later, we discuss his career as a director, and Tim shares his experiences finding financing for his independent films. We also learn the truth behind the apocryphal myth as to whether anyone actually read The Odyssey before shooting O BROTHER WHERE ART THOU?, and Tim confesses his relief for having never gone into teaching the classics as he had originally planned. ⁠
