Will Ferrell movie before.<br />
While driving in to Cape May<br />
to visit my wife, Cathrine, at West<br />
End Garage where she and Cindy<br />
Benigno were representing Cape<br />
Island Foods on West Cape May<br />
Hospitality night, I was lucky<br />
to catch Cathrine’s version of<br />
“Dream A Little Dream” on the<br />
radio at 101.5 WCFA. This is the<br />
third song I’ve heard in the wild<br />
since recording our show with<br />
Annie Walsh in September. Two<br />
Cathrine, one Terry. I’m sensing<br />
a little bias here. Though, in fairness,<br />
everyone likes her better.<br />
Speaking of lovely local lady<br />
singers, local chanteuse Maddie<br />
Hogan’s new song, “Beautiful<br />
Temporary,” is out now on all the<br />
usual places you listen to and buy<br />
music. There’s even a cute music<br />
video on YouTube though, disappointingly,<br />
she is not in her pajamas.<br />
(Congratulations, Maddie!)<br />
I can always tell when someone<br />
has slept in my bed. The delicate<br />
arrangements of my blankets<br />
and pillows just feels a bit… off.<br />
And if you’re scoffing at me for<br />
having a delicate arrangement of<br />
blankets and pillows in my bed<br />
you know damn well you have<br />
one, too, so stop your fooling.<br />
I wanted to see Where The<br />
Crawdads Sing in the theater but<br />
missed out, so I was excited to<br />
catch it on Netflix the other night<br />
and… I’m glad I didn’t waste my<br />
money. It’s not bad. Exactly. It’s<br />
just… not good. I wanted Fried<br />
Green Tomatoes-level female-centric<br />
Oscar bait, what I got was a<br />
gussied-up Lifetime movie. You<br />
could set your watch by the predictable<br />
“shocking” plot twists.<br />
Speaking of Not-Good movies,<br />
wew lad was Black Panther:<br />
Wakanda Forever a slog. After a<br />
touching first 15 minutes that<br />
paid fitting tribute to Chadwick<br />
Boseman, for the next two-plus<br />
hours I kept waiting for something<br />
to happen. I mean, stuff<br />
happened, there were scenes and<br />
costumes and acting and stuff,<br />
but none of it really meant anything.<br />
And, while I’m certainly no<br />
Adonis, I feel like the guy playing<br />
Prince Namor could have hit the<br />
gym a few times before filming<br />
began. I mean, Chris Pratt and<br />
Paul Rudd got totally ripped for<br />
their Marvel turns. Anyway, not<br />
recasting T’Challa was a fatal<br />
mistake. I hated this movie.<br />
But I didn’t hate every movie<br />
I saw this week. I loved Weird: The<br />
Al Yankovic Story on Roku. I had no<br />
idea what to expect and what I got<br />
was a delightful, Airplane-esque<br />
take on the man who brought us<br />
“Like A Surgeon” and “Eat It.”<br />
Daniel Radcliffe (whose casting,<br />
I think, was part of the joke) goes<br />
full bore as the title character and<br />
there are about 100 great cameos<br />
that will have you pausing and<br />
rewinding. Weird is wonderful.<br />
Stanley Tucci (Shall We<br />
Dance) is a great actor. David<br />
Tennant (Broadchurch) is a great<br />
actor. Their Netflix show, Inside<br />
Man, is not great. As a two-hour<br />
movie I might have bought into it.<br />
At four episodes it felt stretched<br />
beyond reason. There’s a great,<br />
meaty, Hannibal Lecter-type role<br />
out there for Tucci. This is not it.<br />
(Stanley Tucci and I once auditioned<br />
for the same part. He got it<br />
and earned an Oscar nod. I didn’t<br />
and watched him at the Oscars.<br />
So who is the real winner here?)<br />
Lastly this week, after a<br />
four-year/five-summer run, my<br />
weekend musical residency at<br />
Exit Zero has come to an end.<br />
Thank you to Jerry Kolber, Dave<br />
Hughes and Cathrine O’Brien<br />
for standing up there with me.<br />
And Tim Joyce for getting it all<br />
started. Hundreds of gigs, thousands<br />
of songs, and I enjoyed<br />
singing every one of them for<br />
you. The Terry O’Brien Trio is<br />
at the Brown Room at Congress<br />
Hall on Sunday, November 27,<br />
12-4pm, then make our Mudhen<br />
debut on February 4. Aside from a<br />
couple of private Christmas parties,<br />
every date before, after and<br />
in-between is open. Adult music<br />
for adults in stunning harmony.<br />
’Til next week, don’t get<br />
caught in The Undertow.
