HIFF32 Morning Talks: Barry Sonnenfeld

Filmmaker Barry Sonnenfeld in conversation with Screenwriter David Koepp at the 32nd Annual Hamptons International Film Festival on October 6, 2024. You’ll never see Hollywood the same way again after hearing from one-of-a-kind filmmaker Barry Sonnenfeld (THE ADDAMS FAMILY, MEN IN BLACK, GET SHORTY and more!), who spills the tea on his blockbuster career. Sonnenfeld’s memoir Best Possible Place, Worst Possible Time delivers a cavalcade of sometimes baffling, often enlightening, and always funny stories about Sonnenfeld’s many films and television shows. From battling with studio executives and producers to bad-script-solving on set to coaxing actors into finding the right light and talking faster, Sonnenfeld provides an entertaining master class in how to make commercial art in the face of constant human foible.
