Started watching The West Wing on Netflix.  Never seen it before, and I had totally forgotten that Rob Lowe was in it, let alone intended to be the main character.  Of course, waiting until now means that my first experience with the show is in HIGH DEF!  Although the quality of it isn't fantastic, it's still 16:9 and at least 720 when the connection's good.  I love it when old shows were future-proofed like that (although the recaps and opening montages are in 4:3).

I've yet to see The West Wing myself. I keep putting it off for a number of reasons, none which makes any sense either. Go figure.

I literally started watching it just because I couldn't think of anything to put on.

Paul Williams Still Alive

I ran across this recently and thought I'd give it a try. Like the title says, I thought Paul Williams was dead. I really don't remember much about him and thought maybe this would reveal some things.

Well, it did, but unfortunately it was not that interesting. He's older now doing his singing act and he's not very good because he lost it. He may have written some classics for others, but as a man and show, this was boring.

The kicker was the Stephen Kessler direction. It was horrible. He kind of sets up in documentary why he is doing the documentary. WTF. Then Paul Williams agrees, but the director does some strange chaotic things. He suddenly changes questioning and throws off not only Paul Williams, but us as the viewer. I could only take about 20 minutes of the borefest.

I do not recommend this in any shape or form.

Eh. Was looking forward to this. Oh well, time for me to so buy some guns or something in its place.

Phil Spector - HBO 2-1/2 Stars
Reviews

Phil Spector is a made for TV Movie from HBO showcasing Al Pacino, Helen Mirren, written and directed by David Mamet. I watched this for one sole purpose. To maybe find out what happened in Phil Spector’s life that lead him to be put on trial for murder. Personally, court room drama movies bore me, but still I gave this a shot.

This is perfectly written for Pacino and Mirren, two powerhouse actors that take this material to thespian levels. While this is what made the movie, it’s also the Achilles heal. It didn’t take long for me to view this as Al Pacino acting. There are long dialogs of Spector’s thoughts and theories. For example, Mirren who decided at the 11th hour to become Spector’s attorney, keeps asking him if he killed Lana Clarkson. Spector (Pacino) constantly dances around a simple yes/no answer.

The movie takes place a day or two before the trial starts. Then it becomes, to me, a standard courtroom drama. Standard operating procedure of how can they get their client free.

Great acting and just a little bit into the neurotic, reclusive, abusive, megalomaniac, arrogant, show-off mind of Phil Spector.

I’d say check it out if you can. Otherwise, this is OK and really is just a TV movie.
