The One and Only Dick Gregory (2021)
You're in for a Rollercoaster of a Ride with this Movie
I was fortunate enough to see Dick Gregory perform live, once in my life. I don't remember where (though I feel like it was in San Francisco). I don't remember when it was (but it was probably in the '60s or '70s). All I know for sure is that it was a great experience.
Beyond the career as a comedian, I knew he'd become an activist, who deserved our respect. But I didn't know all that much about his life, post-comedy. This film filled in a lot of those gaps. Thank you for that!
The End (2020)
They Nailed It!
I'm not known for giving out compliments freely. So, when I do so (without prompting), you know they're sincere. And let me say, without one iota of hesitation, I loved it! We loved it! Loved, loved, loved it! From start to finish.
From the writing to the directing. And, again, without hesitation, what a fabulous ensemble of actors!
Oh, and, did I mention that I/we loved Harriet Walter, personally, in the role of the grandmother? She ABSOLUTELY nailed it!!!
