Wilson, Rush, Raimi

Studio 360

With Tony awards upon us, we check in on some of Broadway’s best. A revival of August Wilson’s “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone” is up for six Tonys, but has caused controversy with the choice of a white director. Wilson’s widow says that critics have misunderstood Wilson’s position. Kurt Andersen talks with Geoffrey Rush, nominated for his role in “Exit the King.” And later, “Spiderman” director Sam Raimi talks about his new horror movie, “Drag Me to Hell.”
