Trivia:
There has been speculation which guest is James Lipton's favorite, but that answer has never been, and probably never will be, revealed. Lipton admits that certain guests have been "more memorable than others", but refuses to single out one particular favorite of the 200-plus artists that he's interviewed. more
Quotes:
Meryl Streep: [taking about Out of Africa] Sydney, I remember, didn't think I was sexy enough to play it.
James Lipton: What did you do about that?
Meryl Streep: They didn't have wonderbras in those days, but I wore a padded bra... a push-up bra and a low cut top... isn't that tragic?

The format and honesty of the actors and penetrating questions of James Lipton make for the success of this show., 14 July 1999
Author: David C. Noll from Annapolis, MD

Mr. James Lipton, an accomplished/actor producer himself, brings out the talent and communicative ability of these actors/artists. It is a pleasure to watch Mr. Lipton ask questions, review accomplishments, and show films clips of the actors, that are gracious enough to share their talents and experiences to future actors, directors and TV viewers. I am overwhelmed by the total honesty of these marvelous artists. They don't come forth with any ego, condescending attitude, but a willingness to share their experiences and faults to further advance the theater and film making.

Please continue the good work,
