[Watch] Griffin Dunne: The Friday Afternoon Club

Watch actor, producer and director Griffin Dunne as he discusses his dazzling memoir, 'The Friday Afternoon Club'.

Growing up between Tinseltown and Manhattan, Dunne had an upbringing like none other. His father was the novelist and journalist Dominick Dunne. His best friend was Carrie Fisher. And then there was his aunt, Joan Didion. 

Dunne sat down with host Tim Byrne to discuss his star-studded childhood, his decades-spanning Hollywood career and the glamour and tragedy of his larger-than-life family.
