  • Ep 529- Director Clay Tweel Talks "Andy Kaufman Is Me"- A New Doc!

    Ep 529- Director Clay Tweel Talks "Andy Kaufman Is Me"- A New Doc!
    Jun 16 2025
    We love us some Andy Kaufman! He was a trailblazer, brilliant, and ahead of his time! We were so excited to hear about this new doc at Tribeca. We have the director Clay Tweel here to tell us all about this comedic mastermind! This revealing documentary offers unprecedented access to the private world of comedy's most enigmatic provocateur, Andy Kaufman, through a treasure trove of never-before-heard audio recordings. Created during the height of his fame, these audio diaries serve as personal journals, capturing Kaufman's inner thoughts, performance ideas and reflections on his unfinished semi-autobiographical book, "The Huey Williams Story." While Kaufman never completed this surrealist work before his untimely death, director Clay Tweel brings these pages to life with imaginative marionette puppetry, creating a mesmerizing glimpse into Kaufman's creative process. Featuring intimate interviews with family members Michael and Carol Kaufman, along with close friends and collaborators including David Letterman, Carol Kane and Tim Heidecker, the film peels away the layers of performance to reveal the thoughtful, complex man behind the provocative public persona. By embracing Kaufman's own philosophical view that no one is a monolith, this captivating documentary presents a nuanced portrait of the artist while challenging audiences to reconsider what they thought they knew about this boundary-pushing entertainer's life, art and legacy. All that and so much more only on The Roundtable with Robert Bannon! __________________________________________________________________ Check out "The Roundtable with Robert Bannon" here on BPN on the daily, on YouTube, Broadway World, and on social media!
