Emily Bader and Tom Blyth Talk “People We Meet on Vacation”

I fell in love with this duo when I met them face to face for the “People We Meet on Vacation” press junket.  Both Emily Bader and Tom Blyth are sweet and cordial.  Based on the novel by Emily Henry, Bader is Poppy and Blyth is Alex.  They’re friends who decide to meet each year to travel to a destination of their own choosing.  But soon, they must learn to navigate towards where their hearts want to go.

In this interview, Bader and Blyth take us inside the making of the film – their interests in joining the cast, their characters, and where in the world would they rather be?

“People We Meet on Vacation” arrives on Netflix on January 9th.

Author Emily Henry and Director Brett Haley Talk “People We Meet on Vacation”

So my biggest question upon meeting author Emily Henry and director Brett Haley for Netflix’s “People We Meet On Vacation” was why they took out the city of Palm Springs from the movie when it was featured prominently on the book?  The answer:  It’s all about economics!

But the bigger question – does Emily Henry like the way Brett Haley adapted her novel?
