So, as you all probably know, unless you don't know me very well, I listen to NPR whenever I'm in my car unless some stupid show like "Echoes" is on. I drove just a bit this weekend, and EVERY time my radio was on, I heard about Scorsese's latest project: Shine a Light. It's a documentary about The Rolling Stones.
Now, I'm not going to go on a rant about this doc, because I don't think I could appreciate it, not being a Stones fan. What I AM curious about is how the heck I wound up hearing about this movie five times. ALL from NPR, at that! Does NPR have a stake in the flick? Haha, you may say. But are they putting my $5 pledge into a movie that I have no interest in supporting?
I'm kidding. I know NPR's not in the movie business. And I've sadly never donated a cent to the radio station that's like a mentor.
Also, Ebert's back. And his first review (at least on the website)? Yep. Shine a Light. 4 stars.
