About this episode
You remember Mara Wilson as a young girl starring in films such as Matilda , Mrs. Doubtfire , and Miracle on 34th Street . You probably don’t remember her in Idyllwild Arts Academy, because that was not a film but an arts-based boarding school in California and you probably didn’t go there with her. In this languid and relaxing interview, Mara shares her stories and experiences at a school where, unlike her films, there was no telekinesis, Robin Williams dressed up like a lady, or real Santa Clauses.
