Must I go to Somalia to find a good pirate? Need I recruit Baretta to keep an eye on/out for Jack Sparrow
? I am desperately seeking someone — most assuredly not Susan — who can make an illegal copy of a film that The Warren Report screened recently. The movie’s a comic gem based on a Charles Willeford novel
— famed for all of his protagonists’ risible misanthropy — and it’s unavailable on dvd, damnit! It’s just not fair. So, if you have some shady friends, watch the THINK piece below and instruct them to set about their copyright-infringing thaumaturgy.
Before you deliver the dvd to me, though, take a look for yourself, then listen to my conversation with the director, recorded at a FILM RAP session held in conjunction with TheFilmSchool just a month ago. Or, I’ll be forced to heave you by the legs with a running bowline.
As always, I encourage to share your thoughts right here.
