WASHINGTON (AP) - For four months, Liev Schreiber did eight intense shows a week in a Broadway production of "Glengarry Glen Ross." At the same time, he was editing his film directing debut, "Everything Is Illuminated." How did he do it? The profanity in the play helped.
"It was incredibly cathartic after spending eight hours in an editing room being frustrated by the filmmaking process to be able to go out and say the 'F' word 104 times," Schreiber told AP Radio.
Once the Broadway play ended its run, Schreiber followed it with a promotional tour for the film, based on Jonathan Safran Foer's rollicking 2002 novel about an American in Ukraine searching for clues to his family's history.
