BERNIE/Garrido's

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.
