Host Ben Mankiewicz begins the new year by talking to the nicest man in Hollywood, actor Henry Winkler. Winkler admits it was almost impossible to find work after his 10-year run as the Fonz on Happy Days. He reminisces about his friendships with Sylvester Stallone and Ron Howard and shares his struggles with dyslexia. And we get the inspiring story of how he got the second role of a lifetime on HBO’s Barry. Winkler is an enthusiastic movie watcher, so his Super 8 is full of gems.  Films Mentioned:  The Waterboy  Little Nicky  Barry*  The Lords of Flatbush  Rocky  Heroes  The One and Only  Night Shift  Scream*  Rebel Without a Cause*  City of God  The Alamo  Nobody  Casablanca*  Love Actually  Notting Hill  Four Weddings and a Funeral*  Les Compères  The Out-of-Towners *Available on Max as of 1/7 (Availability of titles subject to change) Learn more about your ad choices.
