EPISODE # 210 YOU HAD TO BE THERE
Director Nick Davis on his new feature documentary. Recorded October, 2026, 25 minutes.
"The right people at the right moment." Veteran filmmaker Nick Davis interviewed by Westdoc host Chuck Braverman on the truly magical moments in his documentary You Had To Be There: How the 1972 Toronto Godspell Ignited the Comedy Revolution. Davis talks about the cast, which included Martin Short, Gilda Radner, Eugene Levy, Victor Garber, and musical director Paul Shaffer; his own family heritage- grandfather Herman Mankiewicz wrote "Citizen Kane" and great uncle Joseph L. Mankiewicz was a legendary writer/director - and his Oscar winning dad Peter Davis. How was it working with executive producer Judd Apatow, and the joy of making this incredible film, which is running in theaters now.
