I finally got to see this Bastrop/Austin made film with Richard Linklater's style and artistic DNA imprinted over it all. What fun! Jack Black offers a performance that both Ria and I thought was worthy of big time awards. He plays Bernie with such finesse, respectful of character and never ever makes him into a caricature. We hooted and hollered and laughed and found this quintessential Texas film a delight. The casting is flawless. And what fun to see people I know acting, extra-ing, and hearing Graham Reynolds music. A perfect VC showing. And Happy Hour at Garrido's can't be beat. Except for a number of others that I say the same about. You know who you are.
