单集简介 ...

On her first day of college, Elizabeth Banks met a cute guy at a party. This was long before her roles in “Pitch Perfect” and “30 Rock.” A lot has changed, but 33 years later Banks is still with that same cute guy. In this episode of “Modern Love,” she tells our host, Anna Martin, about the intense conversations and difficult decisions that have kept her relationship alive. And, she reads “Making Space in Marriage, Even as the Walls Close In,” a Modern Love essay about a couple who crack open a stale marriage by leaping into Burning Man.

  • I'm Dane Brugler.

  • I cover the NFL draft for The Athletic.

  • Our draft guide picked up the name The Beast because of the crazy amount of information that's included.

  • I'm looking at thousands of players putting together hundreds of scouting reports.

  • I've been covering this year's draft since last year's draft.

  • There is a lot in The Beast that you simply can't find anywhere else.

  • This is the kind of in-depth, unique journalism you get from The Athletic and The New York Times.

  • You can subscribe at nytimes. com slash subscribe.

  • From the New York Times, I'm Anna Martin.

  • This is Modern Love.

  • And today on the show, I'm talking to actor, producer, and director Elizabeth Banks.

  • Elizabeth starred in some of the most iconic series of my teenage years.

  • We 've got Pitch Perfect, the movies that put acapella on the map,

  • and maybe even did The Impossible, which is make acapella cool.

  • Also The Hunger Games, which transformed a book series I loved into a series of movies I loved even more.

  • On screen, Elizabeth's characters are kooky, they can be brash, they're very big.

  • Which is why.

  • Her new TV show, The Miniature Wife, is so intriguing to me because her character is very small.

  • And I mean this literally.

  • She's tiny.
