    Though i was familiar with some of the Casting Directors, i found out about this outstanding Documentary, after listening to a podcast interview with Actor Simon Callow. Moderated by the one and only Leonard Maltin and daughter Jessie Maltin.😊 They ask plenty of juicy questions ! Very informative Doc.
