After a brief delay due to, well, current events, there’s a new episode of Framed & Bound. This time out, Drew Buxton joins Tobias Carroll to get very metafictional as they discuss 2022’s Adaptation, featuring two of Nicolas Cage’s best performances.
Discussed: writing about wrestling, Brian Cox’s agelessness, Charlie Kaufman’s work as a director, the challenges of adapting unadaptable books, and the greatness of Wojciech Has.
Drew Buxton’s So Much Heart is available directly from the publisher and wherever books are sold. If you’ve ever been curious to read The Orchid Thief, it’s available from Bookshop and your local bookstore. Shout Factory’s blu-ray of the film can be ordered here. Tobias wrote about another Charlie Kaufman adaptation for Literary Hub. Our logo is by Mack V.
