In conversation with producer Barbara DeFina: Casino, The Color Of Money, Cape Fear, Goodfellas, The Last Temptation Of Christ and lots more

A very special episode of Film Stories, with a very special guest: producer Barbara DeFina. She tells us what's she currently up to, and takes us through her early work with Sidney Lumet. Then, the many films she produced for Martin Scorsese, including the particular challenges of The Last Temptation Of Christ, Casino, and finding the right house for Cape Fear. There's a bit of Goodfellas in the conversation as well. It's a far-ranging conversation. Hope you enjoy it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
