David Chase & A Charlie Brown Christmas
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.
