Max Winkler

Yes.

Their top two songs that spent the most time at number one was Four Weeks.

The first one was in 1965.

The second one in 1969.

Didn't particularly care for that song.

You got a bonus here.

For six other Rolling Stones songs, hit number one at some point.

Yes.

The writer was a man.

For some of the episodes, it was Max Winkler.

Henry Winkler's son was the director.

Yeah, a lot of Nepo babies in this.

It was a film called Ceremony, starring Uma Thurman and Michael Angarano.

And it was directed by... a friend of mine named Max Winkler, who he had used some of my, he had like synced some of my songs in like his like grad school student film.

And we became, he was a fan of my band.

And that's often how that happens with film score stuff is someone's like, I like your band.

Hunam's second monster experience was apparently much more fun.

Director Max Winkler said that Lizzie Borden's set had more levity because Hunam wasn't carrying the psychological weight of playing Ed Gein.

He also said the lack of detailed historical information about Andrew gave him more freedom to invent the character.

Hunnam actually became something of a mentor to Beatty because he'd just gone through the experience of portraying a notorious real person in Monster.

got to be Trent.

But Max Winkler was up there for a little bit.

Not more than Trent.

Not more than Trent, obviously.

Jake

Kazin, seven.

Max Winkler, seven.

It says Trent's done 28 episodes.

We'll talk about that in a little while.

There's a new network drama called Line of Fire, which debuted on the NBC, but is for some reason here in Australia on HBO Max.

It's...

Look, it's...

Simon Foster, can I tell you about something which is genuinely good and that people should actually be paying attention to? Sure.

It is a new HBO comedy.

It streams here on the HBO Max.

It is called Youth, Let's Watch a Clip.

But those last two percentage points contain multitudes.

And it's in that space that Ian Brennan and Max Winkler have a great opportunity to investigate and reimagine the case.

Monster and American Crime Story return almost inevitably to ideas of repression, pathology, warping effects of homophobia and or racism and or misogyny, the constrictions of society, whether that's larger capital S society or the smaller societies that we form at home and in families.

And broadly, this is a very worthwhile tack to take in the true crime genre.

I hate being interrupted by an ad.

I think the most egregious version of it is HBO Max and Prime because I try to watch Supergirl.

Comes out on Prime or HBO.

I forget which one.

Max.

HBO Max.

And I'm watching it and there were five ad breaks.

And I'm like, no.
