#17 - Peter Horton (actor/director/producer) in Santa Monica

Peter Horton (Thirtysomething, Grey's Anatomy) talks about his journey from musician to actor to a director and writer/producer of film and television. We Talk About Finally agreeing to act in "Thirtysomething" Writing and producing "American Odyssey" for Netflix Directing the pilot for "Grey's Anatomy" and producing the first three seasons The best kind of actors out there A new project for Cinemax set in the future Quotes from the Show "(As a director,) you can never ask for an effect because you're just sabotaging your actor. You have to be able to say, "It feels like the stakes aren't as high as they need to be here. Can you find a way to make the stakes higher?" So, then you're giving it back to them, and they can give you what you need." "I find the best actors have a real ego about what they're doing. The they have a real take on it, too. They come in having really done their homework, having really embodied this character, so that they know them better than I do... they go deep with their work." "There are so many great shows out there that don't necessarily immediately suggest story. I think with the advent of serialized shows, it's a little harder to identify that as something that obviously has legs. You can always make anything have legs if you're a good enough writer these days."
