Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz talks with director Nancy Myers; Ted Sarandos, the co-CEO of Netflix; Tom Rothman, Chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures; and New Yorker writer Michael Schulman, about whether the old saying "They don't make 'em like they used to" applies when it comes to Hollywood's "Dream Factory" today.
