Great to see a whole new audience connecting with my 2013 film THE GREAT HIP HOP HOAX on Netflix. The fiction based on the same story, directed by James McAvoy hits cinemas April 10th.

Are any historians of #C18 London familiar with Thomas Phillips' lock-up house on Gray's Inn Lane? Although Phillips died in 1770, I believe this is where Jacques-Pierre Brissot was briefly imprisoned in 1784. I would love to know more about it. Thank you kindly!

Great documentary on McCartney in his Wings era. As with the Peter Jackson The Beatles: Get Back documentary, along with the music and the work ethic, McCartney's knitwear game is strong and a joy to behold. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/video/det...

Watch Paul McCartney: Man On The Run | Prime Video

Man on the Run is an intimate portrait of Paul McCartney’s journey after The Beatles, as he and wife Linda form Wings. Directed by Oscar-winner Morgan Neville, the film explores McCartney’s reinvention through rare archival footage, capturing both the struggles and triumphs of redefining himself in a new musical era.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.
