For those wondering when this interview took place, the reference to "The new movie MAXIE with Glenn Close" dates it as 1985.

Hatten is a terrible interview. "I know you know the film." Jeeze, of COURSE he does. Always interupting and a series of dumb questions. McCarthy was very gracious.

Wikipedia:

From 1942, McCarthy had a long and close friendship with the actor Montgomery Clift. McCarthy and Clift were cast in the same play together, Ramon Naya's Mexican Mural. The two of them, along with McCarthy's wife Augusta Dabney, quickly became the best of friends. They socialized together and acted in several projects together. The two also collaborated on a screenplay for a film adaptation of the Williams/Windham play You Touched Me!, but the project never came to fruition.
