Anywhere But Here

A Tripp Through Comedy

Our exit today has us packing up to Beverly Hills to begin our new lives. No we aren’t talking about the Beverly Hillbillies. This week, we are discussing Anywhere But Here, written Alvin Sargent, based on Mona Simpson’s book and directed by Wayne Wang. And there is lots of talk of the two stars, 90s favorites Susan Sarandon and Natalie Portman.

Plus, Tripp and Ross talk about the long career of the great Alvin Sargent, other parent-child movies, the rough history of this movie, Mona Simpson's surprising family connections, 90s weepy movies, CSI, and, of course, some great character actors.
