Susan Seidelman Live on Game Changers with Vicki Abelson I’ve been desperately seeking Susan Seidelman for 14 years… some things, some Susans, are worth waiting for! Loved every second with this film maverick whom I’ve admired since we were both kicking around Greenwich Village, kinda “bad girls,” who looked, good. There’s so much common thread (well, except the whole success thing), as Susan points out when we traded books, do all Jewish girls from New York have the word “Mother” in their subtitles? That’s how I finally got the affirmative nod. Susan’s memoir, Desperately Seeking Something: A Memoir About Movies, Mothers, and Material Girls, drops on June 18th, a few days after my mother’s birthday. Fitting. I’ve been flying through it, unable to put it down, and rewatching Susan’s classics. How many times have I seen Desperately Seeking Susan, Madonna’s first and best film role, how Susan fought for her, Roseanna, how she struggled a bit with her, lessons learned, and success beyond imagining. Smithereen’s, Susan’s first film, was also the first American Independent feature to be screened at Cannes. We get back and front story here. Casting Wren, some hardships turned into blessings. Making Mr. Right... her casting and why… and She Devil - which featured Meryl Streep’s first comedic role, and Roseann Barr’s first feature. Meeting Meryl for the first time… Sex and The City, where Susan directed the pilot and the first 3 episodes… with Susan, so many firsts! We didn’t even get to the latter today (but, it’s in the book!) there were so many films to mine! We talked about how she came to film and squeezed in a few more… Cookie, Musical Chairs, and The Boynton Beach Club, her mother’s original idea which Susan honed and ran with. All of Susan’s films break ground, spin things around, and are ahead of their time. Both Wren (Susan Berman) in Smithereens and Susan (Madonna) in Desperately, open the films with selfies for starters… I mean, come on! Susan Seidelman is important. As a woman, a filmmaker, and now as an author. Treat yourself! Stream her films and race to Amazon and preorder her fabulous memoir https://bit.ly/3RjlWqbn you’ll get the heart and soul behind each of her treasures. Susan’s writing is open, vulnerable, and as riveting as her movies.
