I was traveling when this originally aired so I only caught the second part. Now that it’s on DVD and Netflix, I was able to watch both parts uninterrupted. Not a whole lot of new ground is broken in this Scorsese documentary about ‘the quiet, spiritual Beatle’, but what you learn (or relearn from a […]
Hope everyone had a nice day off (if you weren’t working yesterday). The last short I acted in is a nice little piece called ‘State of Separation’. Among my family and friends, it’s also affectionately known as the one where I play a cop, we’ll have plenty of time to talk about that later. For […]
