On the Culture Gabfest, panelists Stephen Metcalf, Dana Stevens, and Julia Turner discuss the Palme d’Or-winning film Blue is the Warmest Color with guest Bryan Lowder, assistant editor of Slate’s Outward blog. Next, the critics talk about The Returned, a macabre French TV show, now airing on the Sundance Network. And finally, the gabbers welcome Claudia Roth-Pierpont, New Yorker staff writer and author of Roth Unbound, a new book about Philip Roth’s prolific and polarizing career.
