Fish Schtick Episode 80 – Kristi Denton Cohen
If fly fishing has a “book,” in modern times, that book has been “A River Runs Through It,” because that book had a movie and that movie had Brad Pitt. But ask anybody who reads and who has been into fly fishing for more than a year or two what their favorite fly fishing book is, and they’re liable to say “The River Why.” If they don’t say, “The River Why,” they’ll say “Trout Bum” by John Gierach, but that’s another story.
“The River Why” by David James Duncan is epic, beloved, treasured … and now it has a movie, too – one that’s been a long time coming. It stars Zach Gilford, William Hurt, Amber Heard and Kathleen Quinlan.
In this episode of the Schtick we're joined by the producer of the moviw Kristi Denton Cohen.

What shitty interview. Unless I missed something, you referred to "the controversy," toward the end of the puff piece, but didn't articulate what it is, nor ask her directly about it. You jizzed all over the book and this adaptation without addressing the fact that the author thinks the movie is a piece of shit. Agree or not, that was probably worth spending some time on...
