Thank you for this wonderful conversation; appreciate his candor, awareness; The Holdovers is a real treat--the kind of wonderful small-scale film American cinema seems too distracted to produce any great degree anymore; wonderful performances!! Paul Giamatti is amazing! Everyday people nattering at each other, not too strident nor soppy in tone---riding the fine line of flawed people that we ultimately come to root for, with a realistic ending. Thank you!
