Now, with Inside Inside, James Lipton, the 2007 recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Emmy, is handing every one of us a backstage pass. You will witness in unprecedented close-up the wit, wisdom and candor of a galaxy of stars, from Paul Newman to Barbra Streisand, Al Pacino, Steven Spielberg, Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Sean Penn, Clint Eastwood, Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie, Anthony Hopkins, Ellen Burstyn, Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, Martin Scorsese, Sharon Stone and many, many more, and marvel at the comic inventions of Billy Crystal, Robin Williams, Mike Myers, Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle - and Will Ferrell as James Lipton on the Inside stage. With the same candor he demands of his guests, James Lipton reveals a life that began under the tutelage of a poet, his father, and a teacher, his mother; continued in the orbit of three theatrical giants, Stella Adler, Harold Clurman and Robert Lewis; and, as writer and producer, took him to the White House with two presidents, the Great Wall of China with Bob Hope, and a wild flight at the controls of an Alaskan bush plane, on his journey to Inside the Actors Studio. 2860802 18 10 2007 Inside Inside total:89|5:18|4:37|3:24|2:9|1:1| 89 329 209 31 4 1 false false Sat Aug 16 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Feb 16 16:32:58 -0800 2008 Sat Aug 16 09:07:31 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Jan 24 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Jan 21 18:34:06 -0800 2009 Sun Jan 25 09:17:07 -0800 2009
