Jay Duplass

It's a true honor and treat to have filmmaker, actor, and true mensch Jay Duplass on this week's Mothering Heights. As an actor, you've seen Jay in the iconic series Transparent, The Chair, and Industry. As a filmmaker, he and his brother Mark redefined independent cinema with films like Jeff, Who Lives at Home, Cyrus, and The Puffy Chair and have fostered beautiful series like HBO's Togetherness and Somebody, Somewhere.

Jay and Leonora talk about Jay's prolific writing and how anxious he is to get back to directing, his generous and generative advice-giving, getting old, and what we see of ourselves in our kids.

Check out all of Jay's movies and series everywhere you can, and buy the book he and his brother Mark wrote, Like Brothers, anywhere you buy books!
