A Q&A with the duo behind CAN'T HARDLY WAIT & JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS!


1998’s all-star teen comedy CAN’T HARDLY WAIT captured the spirit of a generation at the edge of the millennium while establishing the voices of filmmakers Deborah Kaplan & Harry Elfont; in 2001, their adaptation of JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS — and a villainous Parker Posey in braces — offered a prophetic satire of the music and film industries and went on to become a cult legend. For this special "Extra Credit" offering from Movie Madness University Online, join Hollywood Theatre Community Programmer Anthony Hudson for an interview with the writing/directing duo, covering everything from their iconic films and ensemble casts to collaborative filmmaking, THE FLINTSTONES, and the cultural impact of introducing Jan Brady to George Glass in their script for A VERY BRADY SEQUEL.
