Interview (Video): Alec Berg and Bill Hader

From Season 11 of the PBS series “On Story”.

In association with the Austin Film Festival and KLRU-TV, the PBS series “On Story” is a must for anybody interested in screenwriting, movies, and/or TV. This week in the 11th season of the series, a conversation with the co-creators of the hit HBO series Barry.

Quote on writing “bad guys”: “They came to L.A. with a dream just like Barry. They’re just people and so you’re writing it from their point of view: what do they want, how are they feeling, how do you relate to them.”

As the old saying goes: “Even bad guys have mothers.”

There are dozens of videos in the “On Story” archives which you can access here.
