In this special episode of the podcast, recorded live at Zibby’s Bookshop in LA, three extraordinary guests celebrate the acclaimed new film Train Dreams: writer-director Clint Bentley, actor Joel Edgerton, and Black Bear CEO (and Zibby’s brother!) Teddy Schwarzman. The conversation dives into the art of adaptation, the creative journey behind Train Dreams, and the deeply human themes at the heart of Denis Johnson’s beloved novella. From the challenges of translating a 116-page, time-jumping story for the screen to the emotional resonance of portraying an ordinary life with extraordinary dignity, this insightful discussion offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at filmmaking, storytelling, and collaboration.Purchase on Bookshop: <a href="https://bit.ly/4q7EJnz" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/4q7EJnz</a>Share, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/zibbyowens/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@zibbyowens</a>!** Follow <a href="www.instagram.com/totallybookedwithzibby" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@totallybookedwithzibby</a> on Instagram for listening guides and more. **(Music by <a href="https://www.morningmoon.com/music" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Morning Moon Music</a>.
