Description

Roger finds himself and other high-flying Warner execs in glamorous Monaco - for business reasons of course. There are not one but two princesses - Caroline and Grace. Small talk leads to a possible return to filmmaking after a 25-year absence for Princess Grace in a remake of William Wyler's brilliant 1936 film Dodsworth and maybe even a rendezvous in Paris. But fate intervenes.

So, who is Roger Smith? He testified at the Menendez trial. He got hit on by Grace Kelly. He worked with Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Orson Welles, Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson, Steven Spielberg, Gerald Ford, George Soros and Beverly Sills. He said opera needs subtitles. And Michael Eisner was heard to say... "Who the F*&% is Roger Smith?" Roger Smith. No, not the one married to Ann Margaret and not the one Michael Moore chased from General Motors. The OTHER one. Writer, marketing whiz, editor, entrepreneur. This Roger Smith sat down with PBS film critic and NPR radio host Bill McCuddy who asks So, who the F _is_ Roger Smith? "My real goal was to have an interesting life surrounded by fascinating people," says Roger Smith. "And at that I succeeded beyond my expectations." Have a listen and we think you'll agree.
