HBO=Doc; Hollywood Back on the Couch

Hosted by Kim Masters Aug. 17, 2009 Entertainment
Documentaries used to be relegated to PBS and college classrooms, but these days, they're just as liable to come to theater near you.  We talk to Sheila Nevins, who's had a big part in growing of the nonfiction business as head of HBO Docs for the past three decades. Plus, we revisit our session with Hollywood therapist Dennis Palumbo.
