Beyond The Trailer host Grace Randolph sits down with ADMISSION star Tina Fey to find out what it's like working with Paul Rudd in a comedy about college admissions. Reveals Fey, "The first meeting I had with we talked a little about the feminist politics of movie, and also, originally, the movie was closer to the book in that it had a couple of legitimate sex scenes in it." She continues, "I was like, 'Er... They were kind enough to accomodate that." Watch the interview in full below!

Directed by Paul Weitz (American Pie, About a Boy, In Good Company) ADMISSION is written by Karen Croner and Jean Hanff Korelitz. The cast includes Michael Sheen and Lily Tomlin.

In Admission, Tina Fey stars as Portia Nathan, an admissions officer for Princeton University who finds herself recruiting at a strange just "keep livin" commune headed by her former college classmate (Rudd). Things get confusingly complicated when she unexpectedly discovers that one of his students may just be her teenage son that she gave up for adoption years ago.
