Turner Classic Movies’ (TCM) limited series, “Two for One,” returns on Saturday May 11, with an insightful episode featuring acclaimed director Patty Jenkins in conversation with TCM Primetime Host Ben Mankiewicz. In this installment, Jenkins offers a curated selection of two films: “The Fisher King” (1991) and “Synecdoche, New York” (2008), providing a unique perspective on her creative process.
Known for her directorial work on “Wonder Woman” and “Monster,” Jenkins shares her reflections on these distinct choices. “The Fisher King,” starring Robin Williams and Jeff Bridges, presents a fantasy drama centered on a former radio DJ’s quest for redemption in New York City.
