DO YOU FOLLOW THE POLITICS.
>> I DO, I FOLLOW THE POLITIC S.
>> Stephen: I'M NOT SURPRISED.
YOUR DAD IS A JOURNALIST AND YOUR MOM IS A "60 MINUTES"
PRODUCER.
>> I WAS RAISED BY TWO JOURNALISTS, MY AUNTS AND
UNCLES.
>> Stephen: WAS IT HARD COMING OUT TO THEM AND TELLING THEM YOU
WERE GOING TO BE AN ACTOR?
DID YOU HAVE TO SIT THEM DOWN AND SAY, "MOM, DAD"--
>> LISTEN, I'M NOT GOING TO SAVE THE WORLD WITH SUCH INTEGRITY AS
YOU.
YOU KNOW, THEY WERE VERY COOL FROM THE BEGINNING.
WHAT WAS HARD WAS TO LIE TO THEM BECAUSE INVESTIGATIVE
JOURNALISTS ARE REALLY HARD TO LIE TO.
>> Stephen: UH-HUH.
AND JUST WHERE WAS THIS PARTY, OLIVIA?
>> EXACTLY.
THERE WAS NOTHING -- >> SO IF BARBARA'S PARENTS ARE
IN TOWN, HOW COME THERE ARE NO CARS IN THEIR DRIVEWAY.
>> EXACTLY.
>> Stephen: HOW ABOUT BOOK REPORTS, OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT?
WAS IT, "THOUGH, THIS FIRST PHOTOGRAPH IS FAT.
YOU'RE JUST CLEARING YOUR THROAT HERE.
THIS IS ACCURATE BUT NOT FAIR.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO PRINT THIS.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO PRINT THIS."
>> THEY WERE VERY COOL.
THEY WERE FIERCELY PASSIONATE ABOUT DEFENDING MY CREATIVE
INSTINCT S.
>> Stephen: THEY WERE SUPPORTIVE OF YOU BEING AN
ACTRESS, NO WORRIES AT ALL?
IT'S REALLY TOUGH.
95% OF ACTORS AND ACTRESSES DON'T WORK.
>> I KNOW.
I THINK THEY KNEW IF IT DIDN'T WORK I WOULD STOP AFTER A WHILE
AND TRY SOMETHING ELSE.
LIKE I WAS SUPPOSED TO GO TO COLLEGE.
I WAS GOING TO BARD COLLEGE IN UPSTATE NEW YORK.
>> Stephen: SURE.
THAT'S SUPER CRUNCHY.
>> SUPER.
>> Stephen: SUPER CRUNCHY.
MAYBE YOU'LL TAKE CLASSES, MAYBE YOU WON'T KIND OF COLLEGE.
>> SEE HOW I FEEL.
>> Stephen: MAKE YOUR OWN MAJOR KIND OF COLLEGE.
>> ORGIES IN THE WATER FALL.
>> Stephen: I WENT TO THE WRONG COLLEGE.
>> IT WAS GREAT.
BUT I NEVER ACTUALLY WENT.
I MUST HAVE BEEN THE MOST POPULAR ROOMMATE TO SIGN UP FOR
EVERY YEAR BECAUSE I NEVER SHOWED UP.
>> Stephen: YOU WERE OFF ACTING OR SOMETHING?
>> YEAH, I KEPT DEFERRING BECAUSE I STARTED WORKING.
>> Stephen: THE SHOW "VINYL" IS ABOUT A WILD TIME IN ROCK 'N'
ROLL, BACK WHEN THERE WAS ENOUGH MONEY IN MUSIC TO BE WILD.
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: THESE WERE YOUNG PEOPLE WITH A LOT OF MONEY
LIVING CRAZY LIVES.
>> YEAH.
ALTHOUGH IT'S INTERESTING IN THE WHOLE KIND OF ETHOS BEHIND THE
SHOW IS THE RECORD LABELS WERE STEALING FROM THE ARTISTS.
WHICH IS WHY MICK JAGGER, OUR PRODUCER, WANTED TO TELL THE
STORY BECAUSE LABELWERE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE ARTIST AND
CHARGING THEM FOR PRODUCTION OF THE ALBUM S.
>> Stephen: HE WAS WENT TO THE LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS.
SO HE KNEW HE WAS BEING RIPPED OFF.
HONEST TO GOD, HE DID.
>> HE TOOK CONTROL OF THE STONES' FINANCES AND THEY BECAME
A VERY TOUGH BAND TO RIP OFF.
>> Stephen: NOW, THERE'S A LOT IN THIS-- WE HAD BOBBY CANNAVALE
ON HERE THE OTHER NIGHT.
>> THE BEST.
>> Stephen: AMAZING.
AND THERE'S A LOT OF COCAINE.
>> SO MUCH COCAINE.
>> Stephen: COTAIN TAKEN IN THIS.
NOW, DOES YOUR CHARACTER DO COCAINE?
>> NO, NO LUCK THERE.
>> Stephen: NO.
IT'S NOT REAL COCAINE.
THEY'RE NOT DOING REALLY COCAINE.
I MEAN, IT IS HBO.
>> WE DON'T KNOW.
>> Stephen: THEY DO EXCELLENT PRODUCTIONS.
>> EXACTLY.
IT'S NOT BABY LAXATIVE.
IT'S MILK POWDER.
>> Stephen: STILL, I WOULD NOT WANT TO SNORT MILK POWDER.
WHAT IF YOUR LUNGS TURNED OUT TO BE LACTOSE INTOLERANT?
THAT COULD BE DANGEROUS.
THAT COULD BE BAD.
>> IT'S FUNNY.
THERE ARE MOUNTAINS OF IT EVERYWHERE.
IT'S A HILARIOUS SET.
>> Stephen: YOU'RE A DIRECTOR, TOO, RIGHT?
>> I AM.
I DID A MUSIC ALBUM IN NEW ORLEANS.
EDWARD SHARP AND THE MAGNETIC ZEROS.
>> Stephen: THEY OPENED FOR BERNIE SANDERS A COUPLE OF
NIGHTS OKAY.
ARE YOU FEELING THE BERN?
>> I LOVE THE BERP.
I HAVE A LOT OF RESPECT FOR THE BERN AND EVERYTHING HE'S DONE
FOR YOUNG VOTERS.
>> Stephen: BUT?
>> BUT I AM WITH HER.
>> Stephen: YOU'RE HEADED FOR THE HILLS.
YOU'RE HEADED FOR THE HILLS.
>> I HAVE MY PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS, BUT I SUPPORT THE
DISCOURSE.
I THINK THESE DEBATES ARE FANTASTIC.
I LOVE HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE ENGAGED.
IT'S GREAT.
>> Stephen: YOU ALSO EXECUTIVE PRODUCED A SHORT FILM.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: THAT HAS BEEN NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR?
>> YES!
>> Stephen: CONGRATULATIONS.
>> THANK YOU!
IT'S SO GREAT.
>> Stephen: IT'S AN INCREDIBLE STORY.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: IT'S A TEAM OF PEOPLE WORKING IN LIBERIA,
RIGHT.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: WHAT ARE THEY DOING?
>> IT'S CALLED BODY TEAM 12 AND THEY DURING THE EBOLA EPIDEMIC
WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR COLLECTING THE BODIES OF THOSE WHO DIED
FROM THE VIRUS.
THAT WAS ESSENTIAL BECAUSE THE ONLY REASON IT DIDN'T SPREAD IN
A MUCH BIGGER WAY IS BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE THEM WHO WERE
CONTAINING THE VIRUS WHICH WAS SPREAD BY CONTACT WITH THE DEAD.
IT'S AN INCREDIBLE STORY OF HEROISM.
>> Stephen: THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO WENT INTO WHAT YOU MIGHT
CALL THE HOT ZONE.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: WHERE THE DISEASE WAS SPREADING.
>> YES.
AND THEY WERE LOCAL MEMBERS OF THAT COMMUNITY, SO THEY WERE
COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS -- >> WHO IS SHOOTING THIS?
WHO IS THE CAMERAMAN?
>> DAVID DARD, OUR DIRECTOR?
AN EXTRAORDINARY GUY.
AND HE WAS WORKING AS AN AID WORKER THERE AND WAS A FILM
MAKER AND STARTED FILMING FROM WITHIN.
SO THE ACCESS IS JUST KIND OF INCREDIBLE BECAUSE YOU WOULD
NEVER BE ABLE TO SEE THAT JUST AS A FILMMAKER.
>> Stephen: IS HE AN AMERICAN?
>> HE'S AN AMERICAN.
>> Stephen: HE WENT OVER AND DID THIS.
WAS HE ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE QUARANTINED WHEN HE CAME BACK?
>> HE WAS QUARANTINE FORWARD 45 DAYS AND I'M ONLY LAWCHG
BECAUSE, CLEARLY, IT'S THE WAY TO GET THE BEST MOVIE OUT OF
YOUR DIRECTOR IS QUARANTINE THEM FOR 45 DAYS.
>> Stephen: HE EDITED WHILE HE WAS IN QUARANTINE.
>> HE EDITED THE FILM WHILE HE WAS IN QUARANTINE.
>> Stephen: YOU ALMOST LITERALLY CHAINED HIM TO THE
EDITING MACHINE.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT?
HE'S NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR.
>> Stephen: HE'S AN EXECUTIVE PRODUCER.
