McCarthy is not interested in playing pleasant characters. Flawless women with
perfect clothes and relationships? Nope, not for her. "Who wants to watch

Terry Gross about 'Bridesmaids,' playing Sean Spicer on 'SNL,' and her role as
literary forger Lee Israel in 'Can You Ever Forgive Me?'
Also, John Powers reviews the BBC drama 'Bodyguard,' dropping on Netflix Oct.
