Modest Mouse’s Isaac Brock, John Ridley’s “American Crime,” & Helen Oyeyemi
John Ridley, the Oscar-winning screenwriter of “12 Years a Slave,“ talks about his new drama series “American Crime,” and why he won’t go back to being a stand-up comic. The Nigerian-born novelist Helen Oyeyemi transplants Snow White to 1950s New England. And Isaac Brock explains why it took 20 years (and a UFO sighting) to write Modest Mouse’s new single.
