Even bitches have back stories. That was the singular thought that made Karin realize that mean girl Jennifer Lamont from Stepping Stone had a story to tell and a path to redemption in Captain of Industry.
Trivia: Comfort and Joy
The idea and opening scene of Comfort and Joy came from the first hearing of Ed Sheeran’s “The A Team.”
Trivia: Bulgarian Cowboys?
Cowboys in Russia (Love by the Numbers) were inspired by the rollicking “Bulgarian Cowboy” from pianist Paul Halley, which in turn was inspired by his travels in Russia with the Paul Winter Consort.
Trivia: I’m Your Auntie Mame!
Auntie Mame is one of Karin’s favorite movies, and it was pre-ordained when actress-of-a-certain-age Helen Baynor (Roller Coaster) needed a signature role, Mame would be it.
Trivia: Time for Chopped!
If you recognize a certain television cooking competition in the epilogue of Roller Coaster, you’re not wrong. “Prepare a gourmet French dinner that includes haggis-in-a-can.” Karin thinks that’s fun. To watch.
