Mike NicholsGUEST
I have done... two and a half musicals in sort of different forms.
Mike NicholsGUEST
I directed The Apple Tree, I produced Annie, and I saved my one and only together with Peter Stone, Beloved and Gone.
Mike NicholsGUEST
And it's enough.
Mike NicholsGUEST
And I said, I hate doing musicals.
Matt DuffyGUEST
It real- it really, the pacing I thought was great.
Matt DuffyGUEST
I mean, I think you have to credit Peter Stone's script too.
Brandon DavisHOST
Oh, yeah.
Brandon DavisHOST
I can, I can speak from the fact I just got done appearing in a musical that was written by Peter Stone.
Matt DuffyGUEST
Mm.
Brandon DavisHOST
So I know that he's very, uh, he, he was so talented in terms of just writing dialogue and being able to make things suspenseful, and making things just really gel in terms of character.
8 MINS LATER
Brandon DavisHOST
... because he thought he was too old for Audrey Hepburn.
Brandon DavisHOST
And so here, you know, nine years later, um, he's, you know, playing kinda her love interest.
Matt DuffyGUEST

So I know that he's very – he was so talented in terms of just writing dialogue and being able to make things suspenseful and making things just really gel in terms of character.
Brandon DavisHOST
And I just think that this movie is so fun because also you probably have – the two most elegant people ever in movie history on screen together in a really, really fun mystery screwball, romantic comedy.
8 MINS LATER
Brandon DavisHOST
no oh you i mean well as much time as you spend at the beach definitely you should i would think um but but no i think i think what's also great about this movie is and what really the aside from the script and of course the whole hitchcock sensibility of it is the chemistry between audrey hepburn and carrie grant which i think is fascinating because you know just nine years earlier, Cary Grant turned down the role of Linus and Sabrina because he thought he was too old for Audrey Hepburn.

Drew McWeenyHOST
I mean, this is the guy who also directed Jaws: The Revenge, the one where the shark roars.
Drew McWeenyHOST
Peter Stone's filmography is better than Sargent's.
Drew McWeenyHOST
Uh, he wrote Charade, and Father Goose, and Sweet Charity, and Skin Game.
Drew McWeenyHOST
And like any writer, uh, he had his ups and downs.
