Hear actor John C. Reilly, director Jake Kasdan, and film critic Ed Ward, on this edition of Fresh Air.

John C. Reilly and Jake Kasdan talk about their new film Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. Jake Kasdan woke up in the middle of the night a couple years ago and had an idea that his next film would be a fake music biopic called Walk Hard. He went on to cast John C. Reilly as Dewey Cox, the fake music legend at the heart of the story who has trouble with women and drugs and who tries on a multitude of musical personalities. The film also features Jenna Fischer from NBC's The Office and was co-written and produced by Judd Apatow. Apatow and Kasdan worked together previously on the critically acclaimed TV show Freaks and Geeks. Walk Hard will be released on December 21.

Then, Ed Ward reviews the Bob Dylan concert film The Other Side of the Mirror. It chronicles Dylan's performances at the Newport Folk Festivals from 1963 to 1965. [Broadcast Date: December 4, 2007]
