When film and theater director Julie Taymor came to the third annual Montclair Film Festival in Montclair, New Jersey, it only made sense to get Montclair's most famous resident to interview her. But since Jonathan Alter wasn't available, they settled for Stephen Colbert, another famous Montclair resident, instead. :-D
The interview was held in the auditorium at the Montclair Kimberly Academy, a private school. Of course it was sold out.
