Dear Readers,
A quick review of an interesting documentary that I watched a few nights ago. Back in 2004 Stephen Tobolowsky, a Hollywood character actor, had a film made of him telling various stories to guests during his birthday party. The concept seems very simple, but is highly entertaining and contains a lot of interesting observations. For those of you who really like films that are a little unconventional, I absolutely recommend this because of its technique and that it is not a rant on the industry despite Tobolowsky being credited in about 150 movies. The good news is that Tobolowsky is a tremendous storyteller, and he is quite different from the characters he plays in film. I was quite surprised by this-- shows you what I know. The film is called Stephen Tobolowsky's Birthday Party.
