Dianne Wiest | Episode 45

Don't Know Her?

18-01-2023 • 1 hr 36 mins

Happy New Year! Wipe away your January Blues with this celebration of the legendary Dianne Wiest.

Having twice triumphed at the Academy Awards, Dianne will be the first entry in our miniseries looking at some Oscar winners who didn’t quite get the career traction we’d have expected following their golden moments.

We leap into our conversation with her Oscar-winning roles in Hannah And Her Sisters and Bullets Over Broadway (Woody Allen, 1986 & 1994) before navigating through other key touch points in her career: Parenthood (Ron Howard, 1989), Edward Scissorhands (Tim Burton, 1990), Rabbit Hole (John Cameron Mitchell, 2010) and I Care A Lot (J Blakeson, 2020).

Michael then takes on this episode’s quiz in a game called North, East, South, Wiest before we wrap up by suggesting some dream roles we’d love to see Dianne get the chance to take on.
