Episode Description from the Publisher

With The Comeback's 20-year journey now complete, Laura Silverman joined Newsweek’s H. Alan Scott to reflect on what it meant to play Jane, the documentarian who became the audience's eyes and ears into Valerie Cherish's world. Silverman opens up about her bond with Lisa Kudrow, what it was like to act with her every single day and how she found her way into a character that was never overanalyzed, just felt. Plus, the story behind that final scene — and why neither she nor Kudrow could get through it. Subscribe to my newsletter: https://for-the-culture.beehiiv.com Follow me: https://linktr.ee/halanscott See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
