Tara Ariano February 19, 2016 Share February 19, 2016 A compilation of discussions between director Mike Nichols (1931-2014) and his colleague Jack O'Brien includes the former's recollections of his early career in show business, including his comedy performances with Elaine May in the late 1950s; stage directions of "Barefoot in the Park" (1963) and "The Odd Couple" (1965); and making the films "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966) and "The Graduate" (1967). The interviews were filmed at the Golden Theatre in New York City in July 2014. Premieres Monday, February 22 at 9 PM ET.

Charlie Baker February 23, 2016 Share February 23, 2016 I wasn't sure this was necessary after seeing the American Masters on Nichols directed by Elaine May. But in fact the two films seem excellent complements to each other. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/39171-becoming-mike-nichols/#findComment-1988156
atlantaloves February 24, 2016 Share February 24, 2016 It was wonderful and so full of inside information on his first two films. I loved it and yes, it is a great companion piece to the PBS documentary. I highly recommend this documentary. What a life this man lead, was there anybody that he did not know? I think not.
