Story Grid Editors Roundtable

Hope, love, and injustice intersect this week in Anne’s pitch: James Baldwin’s 1973 novel If Beale Street Could Talk, and the 2018 film adaptation that was written and directed by Barry Jenkins. Each week one of the Story Grid Editors—Jarie Bolander, Valerie Francis, Anne Hawley, Kim Kessler, or Leslie Watts—pitches a film as an example of a significant story principle. The rest of us explore different aspects of the story so we can all understand it better. Click here for the full show notes.
