David Chase & A Charlie Brown Christmas

Studio 360

Kurt Andersen talks with the creator of The Sopranos, David Chase, who returns to New Jersey for Not Fade Away, his first movie. Vince Guaraldi’s score to A Charlie Brown Christmas does the near-impossible — it’s holiday music that conjures childhood without getting too cute. Plus, we’ll hear Kurt Andersen’s sci-fi story with a holiday twist.
