Mary Steenburgen on her new film Book Club, songwriting and more

If you've ever been part of a book club, or if you know someone who goes to one every week, you've probably realized that it's really about getting together with a good group of people. Sometimes, it even becomes more about the stories you share, than the stories you read.

That's exactly what happens in a new film, about a group of girlfriends in their 60s who decide to pick up Fifty Shades of Grey. The aptly named film, Book Club, stars Jane Fonda, Diane Keaton, Candice Bergen and Mary Steenburgen.

Steenburgen joined Tom Power in the q studio to talk about the film, the close friendship she developed with her castmates and what she thought of Fifty Shades of Grey. Book Club hits theatres this weekend on Friday, May 18.
