Episode Description from the Publisher

It's time to explore the World According to Glenn. I'm Kevin Jacobsen. Glenn Close is my favorite actress, and this show is all about exploring the career of one of the finest actors of her generation. Each episode, I'm joined by a guest as we dive into one of Glenn's movies, TV shows, or stage productions, going chronologically through her career, discussing her performance, and assessing the project itself. This week, writer Luca Giliberti joins me to discuss Glenn's performances on the Apple TV shows Tehran and The New Look! We break down Glenn's turn as a British Mossad agent in Iran on the former, Harper's Bazaar editor-in-chief Carmel Snow on the latter, the successes and failures of both shows, and plenty more!
