The Business: Q&A with Lisa D’Apolito of LOVE, GILDA
Q&A with director Lisa D’Apolito of LOVE, GILDA. Moderated by Kaitlin Fontana, TV and film writer, director, and producer, and a National Magazine award-winning essayist.
Love, Gilda opens a unique window into the honest and whimsical world of beloved performer Gilda Radner, whose greatest role was sharing her story. Working with the Radner estate, D’Apolito unearthed a collection of diaries and personal audio and videotapes documenting her childhood, her comedy career, her relationships and ultimately, her struggles with cancer. These never-before-seen-or-heard footage and journal entries form the narrative spine of the documentary, allowing Gilda to tell her own story – through laughter and sometimes tears.
