  • Lindsay Lohan and the Production of The Canyons

    Lindsay Lohan and the Production of The Canyons
    2026/03/13
    This week, Troy and Dara dive into one of their all-time favorite pieces of journalism: the New York Times Magazine article “Here Is What Happens When You Cast Lindsay Lohan in Your Movie” by Stephen Rodrick. The 2013 story chronicles the chaotic three-week shoot of The Canyons—the low-budget erotic thriller written by Bret Easton Ellis, directed by Paul Schrader, and starring Lindsay Lohan and James Deen. “We don’t have to save her,” Schrader said. “We just have to get her through three weeks in July.” A month later, Schrader would be standing naked in a Malibu bedroom, missing his dogs and trying to coax Lohan out of her robe. Turns out three weeks can be a very long time. We also touch on: x17's 7/27/2012 blog post about the Lindsay Lohan and Lady Gaga Sleepover What It Was Like to Make The Canyons, A Producer's Tale by Braxton Pope for Vanity Fair 2012 James Deen Profile by Amanda Hess for Good Magazine James Deen was Never a Feminist Idol by Amanda Hess for Slate.com NOTE: Due to some technical difficulties, this episode is audio-only Listen ad-free on patreon.com/whatsyourissue Follow on instagram: @Whatsyourissueshow @troyjeanspears @daralaine Learn more about your ad choices.
