Kenneth Lonergan doesn\u2019t think there\u2019s a real difference between comedy and drama, at least not in the way he writes and directs. The playwright-screenwriter-director talks with Marc about the lie of sentimentality, how ideas collapse when he\u2019s writing and new ideas emerge, and why he hopes to get to 95% satisfaction with his work (he\u2019s gotten to about 90% so far). That work includes Manchester By The Sea, Margaret, You Can Count On Me, and plays like The Waverly Gallery, which is now on Broadway.\xa0This episode is sponsored by Loop Jewelry,\xa0Screen Dive from 20th Century Fox,\xa0YouTube Music, and\xa0Stamps.com.
