Round 2: Ep. 16 - Producer/Author GARY W. GOLDSTEIN – The Making of “Pretty Woman” and a Lifetime of Curiosity
In this episode of TB9, we dive into magic, both in real life and on the silver screen. First, our guest, the incredibly accomplished Gary Goldstein, takes us behind the scenes of one of his most iconic films, “Pretty Woman” and shares details about Julia Roberts’ breakout performance and how the movie almost didn’t get made. It’s a fantastic story sure to resonate with every Gen-Xer who is a fan of that film.
Gary then takes us into some deeper introspection regarding how he lost interest in movie making, and how that led him to finding reward and resonance in living intentionally. Gary provides profound thoughts that reflect on legacy and lasting impact, the strength that is achievable through vulnerability, and the difference between having a purpose and creating a legacy. It’s a journey through a host of insights that reverberate far beyond the entertainment industry and highlight a life lived to its fullest.
So places everyone! We’re ready to roll tape on a really fun episode of The Back 9.
