Barry Sonnenfeld and Jerry Seinfeld in Conversation: Call Your Mother

I got to know who Barry is by seeing him interviewed on Letterman in the 90's and 00's. I remembered him being one of the funniest guests ever. Then I found out that he was a very successful director and cinematographer, writer and actor. He's one of the rare people that know how to direct a comedy that ends up actually being funny. I also love Seinfeld who I followed for a few years before his show in the 90's. I loved his style of stand up and know that there's way more to him than the guy he played on his own show. I used to listen to people say "he's not even that funny on the show and it's named after him". He basically was the straight man letting the other characters shine. His ego balance is just about on point because he's funnier than anyone who was on the show but he didn't feel the need to be. He has a genuine appreciation for other funny people.

The duck being cut on the table could easily be the follow up episode to The Chinese Restaurant

Jerry is just so rich he’s living in another dimension and his kids and wife are so lucky !!

This is doing my head in does anyone else think Barry Sonnenfeld has some of Garry Shandling's mannerisms? Great launch/interview.

So much to love about two friends speaking directly. I have to tell you I love to see @Barry Sonnenfeld talking about camera angles and using his hands to frame probably without even thinking he was doing it. I look forward to reading your book and Thank you @Jerry Seinfeld I too dislike when my friends soeak for me. Lol 😉😆😁 Thanks for a well spent hour it flew by, very enjoyable. 😆🙇

Barry...CALL YOUR MOTHER!!! For those who are not familiar with Barry, the guy is crazy AND hilarious! Keep us laughing Barry!

Barry Sonnenfeld is a awesome guy who makes films

Get Shorty is one of my favourite movies.

God, I love Pennies from Heaven. The end makes me cry every time.

Sonnenfeld is my fevourate satcom

Glad to hear the greatest movie ever made was "The Sound of Music" it's not likely correct, however if I had to pick one movie as my favorite it would be "The Sound of Music".And Jerry has a wonderful laugh and he invents things all the time and in the moment on a regular basis to laugh about. These two have a great chemistry and understand each other accurately and on extremely deep level

Wish they'd have read the questions from the audience.

Hi, Mr. Seinfeld. I have happily watched, several times, each of your CCGC episodes and all subsequent online interviews regarding the same. I thank you for your hours of hard work, entertaining us on many nights after the mundane work day. On a somewhat similar note, now and again I have heard you mention in a comedic tone and situation how you are "done" with life, having already accomplished and succeeded in most of your endeavors, etc. Might I suggest that you discover the academic arena for your energies. If you are "bored," you have stopped learning; you have ceased making dreams. You know this. What you neglect is how you avoid the academic arena in your pursuits. If I may -- and with all respect -- Mr. Seinfeld, you utter and offer many off-base comments regarding a number of topics. Without addressing any particular topic, I would consider offering that perhaps you might study linguistics, in that you clearly have a love for words and language. Please pick up a study of something as this, process and then teach us through your humorous filter. You are not done yet. I apologize for my presumptive take.

Jerry should do a Master Class video series.

“Did you just make that up?"

I wish they would restate (or that the venue would close-caption) the audience comments.

Mamiya Sekor! Yes Jerry, great reference, you rock!

Big fan of Seinfeld the show and Seinfeld the comedian. I was watching something of his recently and had an idea that I wanted to share with him. Do not expect he will see this but here we go. Jerry, you should teach a course on "comedy" at a university. You will not make "Seinfeld" money, but you will not have any problem finding a U that will accept the idea.

Pink shoes!

Just for interest, this may well be one of few good things that aired just a few days before Lockdown. Ignorance was bliss, or at least Amusement!
