Movie, Music, and TV Reviews

Ok I saw the first episode of Perry Mason,...... too dark, stagy and Perry Mason is not even a lawyer here,.... story is so contrived, not worthy of a serious review.. Did not know it until end, but the character I liked most in The White Shadow "Salami" directed this:

Yes he was worthy of great direction in The Sopranos and the rest of top HBO.

Thing is I actually met him by chance and we were paddle ball mates for a spell before ands while he was studying for the director's test,..... heard from people out there (L.A.) who say he is top shelf character wise...sorry to see him involved in this poor quality production project.
