Hollywood royalty joins the Film Stories podcast for this special episode, as writer, producer and director James L Brooks.

The starting point for the chat is a film that Brooks has produced, the long awaited screen adaptation of Judy Blume's Are You There God, It's Me Margaret.

And then they get chatting about making movies, about the 1994 box office disappointment I'll Do Anything, a brief drive by As Good As It Gets, and a few hints as to the film he's workong on next.

Are You There God, It's Me Margaret is in UK cinemas now.
