Bob Geldof once asked us, “Where is the filtered excellence!?” It’s right here. Once a week we take a break from comedy to bring you this week’s picks of the best things to watch, the most interesting things to do, great things to try, the best picks to read, our favorite things to listen to and more.
Despite a global pandemic that put the entire world on pause, there has been exceptional art that has emerged out of the shutdown. Now that we are halfway through what has been a year that we have never experienced, here’s the best of the best that we’ve seen so far:

What She Said: The Art Of Pauline Kael. For nearly 25 years, Pauline Kael was America’s most influential film critic. Her passionate championing of films by Martin Scorsese, Robert Altman, Arthur Penn and Sam Peckinpah, played a key role in the ‘New Hollywood’ movement that dominated the 1970s. Now director Rob Garver looks back at Kael’s life career and influence in this great documentary. Told on her own words, it looks back on how Kael, a single mother living in a bohemian lifestyle in Berkeley, became a film critic for a number of California-based publications and public radio in the early 1950s, before moving onto McCall’s and The New Republic in the 1960s. When The New Republic refused to publish her positive review of Bonnie & Clyde, it was picked up by The New Yorker. It was Kael’s praise of the controversial Arthur Penn classic that helped make the film a box office hit – and make her The New Yorker’s main film critic for the next 23 years. The film also shows Kael’s never ending defense of her work from filmmakers, actors, publicists, editors and fellow critics, who weren’t prepared for a woman (in a predominately male field) that could write with such wit, precision, insight and historical context. Garver has full access to Kael’s archives, including writings (which are read by Sarah Jessica Parker), TV and radio interviews, home movies and photos to completely round out Kael’s career and life outlook. With new interviews with Quentin Tarantino, Paul Schrader, David O. Russell, Alec Baldwin and Kael contemporaries/disciples Molly Haskell, Joe Morgenstern and David Edelstein, Garver has crafted the ultimate salute to the greatest film critic of all time. What She Said: The Art Of Pauline Kael, is available now on Amazon and Itunes.
Ali & Cavett: A Tale Of The Tapes. Between 1968 and 1979, Muhammad Ali was a frequent guest on The Dick Cavett Show. Topics ranged from his exile from the ring, politics along racial, religious grounds, and, of course, to his exploits inside the ring. These appearances form the basis of this new HBO documentary from director/producer/writer Robert S. Bader. It presents Ali as the first athlete who truly embraced television, along with the news/talk show format that put his intellect, his sense of humor and his socio-political views on full display – with Cavett being both instigator and comic foil. The doc also reveals why the two became friends on and off camera, with Cavett, giving Ali a forum to be himself, but also challenging Ali on his belief systems without being combative or condescending. While the film serves as a time capsule of America at its most divisive, Bader also put together a story of how two people from starkly different backgrounds were able to forge a friendship that spanned decades. With appearances by Reverend Al Sharpton, sportswriter Larry Merchant, Ali biographer Thomas Hauser, columnist Juan Williams and author Ilyasah Shabazz, Bader has put together a loving look at two cultural icons. Ali & Cavett: A Tale Of The Tapes is available now on HBO Max.
Bad Education. The story behind the largest public school embezzlement scandal in American history is the subject of this HBO original film. Hugh Jackman stars as Frank Tassone, the beloved superintendent of the Roslyn school system whose hands on relationships with the students, parents and faculty leads them to become the 4th best district in the nation. Allison Janney plays Pam Gluckin, the district business manager and Tassone’s closest ally and confidante. When sophomore Rachel Bhargava (Geraldine Biswanathan) starts what was intended to be a fluff piece for the school newspaper, she unlocks a web of deceit and theft that would forever alter everyone involved. Mike Makowsky – who was in Roslyn’s middle school when the scandal broke – has written a screenplay that skillfully peels away the deception and hypocrisy. But it also gives the primary characters enough depth and nuance that make you have some understanding behind their motivations. Jackman gives one of the best performances of his career as Tassone, who slowly moves from confident and assuring, to calculating and conniving with astonishing subtlety. Janney’s performance as Gluckin is the exact opposite: Rocking the Long Island accent, Janney is pitch perfect as Gluckin, who, unlike Tassone, is pretty open about the rationale behind her theft. With dynamic turns by Biswanathan (as the young reporter who uncovers the widespread theft), and Ray Romano (as school board president Bob Spicer), along with superb direction by Corey Finley, this is a film that should receive strong consideration during awards season. Bad Education is available now on HBO Max.
I Know This Much Is True. The HBO adaptation of Wally Lambert’s best selling book stars Mark Ruffalo as twin brothers Dominick and Thomas Birdsey. Thomas is a paranoid schizophrenic who has been in and out mental hospitals his entire life, while Dominick is a former teacher turned house painter, who also keeps tabs on his brother. When Thomas cuts off his hand as an act of protest against the impending Gulf War, it puts Dominick on a journey that find missing pieces of his past – and come to terms with his own life choices. Ruffalo puts in double duty as the troubled twins and he’s electric. As Dominick, he captures his empathy, his anger and the relentless pursuit to put together the shattered fragments of his life, in order to move forward. Playing Thomas, he shows the internal struggles of mental illness and the difficulties – and extremes – that those with schizophrenia have to deal with moment to moment and not just day to day. It’s a fantastic performance in a career that has been loaded with them. The series is also a showcase for some of our best character actors: Melissa Leo as their dying mother who holds on a key secret to the brothers past; Kathryn Hahn as Dominick’s ex-wife Dessa; Imogen Poots as Joy, Dominick’s current girlfriend who harbors secrets of her own; Archie Panjabi as Dr. Patel, Thomas’ psychologist; and a whirlwind performance by Juliette Lewis as Nedra Frank, the grad student that Dominick hires to translate his late grandfather’s life story. With great direction for Derek Cinfrance (Blue Valentine), this is a series that pulls you in and refuses to let go, long after its over. I Know This Much Is True is available now on HBO Max.
Run. The creative team behind Fleabag put together this terrific HBO series. Merritt Wever stars as Ruby Richardson, who puts her uneventful life in the suburbs on hold after receiving a text from her former college boyfriend Billy Johnson (Domhnall Gleeson) that simply says ‘RUN’. Re-connecting at Grand Central Station, they embark on an emotional journey in which they rekindle their romance, secrets will be revealed and the realities of the lives they left behind quickly close in. The chemistry between Wever and Gleeson is undeniable and the creative team of Vicky Jones and Phoebe Waller-Bridge keep the dialogue – along with the sexual tension and unexpected suspense – moving at a crisp, brisk pace. A smart and sexy show from start to finish. Run is available now on HBO Max.
The Last Dance. Through the 1990s, Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls ruled the NBA, wining 6 championships in 8 years, including two three peats. This new 10 part ESPN docu-series looks back at the 1997-1998 campaign with Jordan with looking to close out his Hall Of Fame career with yet another title. Featuring new interviews with Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Phil Jackson, Steve Kerr, opponents, sportswriters, broadcasters among many others, it shows the Bulls machine operating at full throttle, even as teams such as the Indiana Pacers and the Utah Jazz were looking end their dynasty. What really makes this series must see viewing is the never before seen footage of the team, on and off the court captured throughout the season by NBA Entertainment. It’s a remarkably candid look at a one of the all time great NBA teams coping with all of the pressures of being at the top of the sports mountain, lead by one of the best to ever grace the court. The Last Dance is available now on the ESPN app.
Betty. After the success of the film Skate Kitchen, writer-director Crystal Moselle adapts many of that film’s aesthetics to this new six part HBO series. Set in New York City during the summer, it follows a diverse group of young women skaters trying to find their place in a male-dominated world. There’s the sharp, no-nonsense Janay (Dede Lovelace); her super chill until things are not chill Kirt (Nina Moran); the stylish filmmaker Honeybear (Moonbear); the cool, weed vape pen dealing Indigo (Amani Russell) and Camille, a skilled skater who continuously tries to prove her worth to the boys within their circle. Using downtown New York as a backdrop, Moselle captures the vibrancy and energy of being a city kid hanging with friends, looking for love, a good time and, of course, acceptance among their skating peers. Another winner from the HBO camp. Betty is available now on HBO Max.
After Life. Ricky Gervais returned as the writer, director and star for Season 2 of the critically acclaimed Netflix series. He’s back as Tony Johnson, a writer for a local British newspaper who, despite making significant emotional breakthroughs, is still still grieving the death of his wife Lisa (Katy Godliman). But as he wrestles through his own personal trauma, Tony makes attempts to be more kind to those in his immediate circle. It includes helping his brother in a law and boss Matt (Tom Basden) work through a marital separation and the possible shutdown of the newspaper; setting up his mailman Pat (Joe Wilkinson) with sex worker Roxy (Roisin Conaty); advising ad exec Kath (Diane Morgan) as she has to deal with her unreturned affections for Matt; and help recent hire Sandy (Mandeep Dillon) work out a personal and career crisis. But the show’s best moments come when Tony opens up about his conflicted feelings about starting a new relationship with nursing home attendant Emma (Ashley Jensen), and his talks with Anne (Penelope Wilton), an older widow who frequently visits her late husband’s gravesite. This season has its fair share of laughs, but this is more of a extended meditation on grief, loss, and how the power of community can get help someone find the strength to carry on. It’s another strong offering from the mind of Ricky Gervais. Season 2 of After Life is available now on Netflix.
Hey Big Boy – Bert Kreischer. Everyone’s favorite shirtless, party animal/family guy comic is back for his latest Netflix special. Recorded live in Cleveland, Bert takes on parenting, marriage, being a gun owner and other topics as he always does – with great set ups, killer punchlines and the sly callbacks. Insightful, relentless and firing on all cylinders, this another solid hour from one of the best comics working today. Hey Big Boy by Bert Kreischer is available now on Netflix.
Once We Were Brothers: Robbie Robertson & The Band. After making the rounds on the festival circuit, the eagerly awaited documentary on The Band was given a proper theatrical release. Directed by Daniel Rohar (and executive produced by Martin Scorsese), it tells The Band’s story through Robertson’s eyes – from his early years with his family on the Six Nations Reserve; traveling to the Deep South to work with Ronnie Hawkins; to meeting the group of musicians that would later become The Band. There’s also great stories about backing up Bob Dylan during his first electric tours, and how their subsequent relocation to Woodstock would change their lives forever. Robertson also tells how the trappings of fame ultimately led to drug and alcohol abuse, which nearly destroyed the musical dynamic. Then there’s, of course, how The Last Waltz – considered to be the greatest concert film of all-time – came together, providing a fitting farewell to one of rock’s most respected and revered groups. Despite having a lack of live footage of The Band at their peak, Rohar does an extraordinary job of telling The Band’s story, piecing together interview footage, the timeless Elliot Landy photographs, and, Robertson’s rich storytelling. With appearances by former road manager Jonathan Taplin, early producer John Simon, Eric Clapton, Bruce Springsteen, Van Morrison, Taj Mahal, Ronnie Hawkins and Robertson’s former wife Dominique, Rohar has put together a warm salute to one of rock’s most influential groups.
Da 5 Bloods. Spike Lee’s follow up to the Oscar-winning BlacKkKlansman explores the lingering effects of The Vietnam War through the eyes of Black soldiers. It tells the story of four veterans – Eddie (Norm Lewis), Melvin (Isiah Whitlock, Jr), Otis (Clark Peters) and Paul (Delroy Lindo) – who return to Vietnam to search for the remains of their squad leader, ‘Stormin Norman (Chadwick Boseman), along with a cache of gold that they buried with him. Paul’s son, David (Jonathan Majors) tags along and together they embark on a journey that will test the limits of the friendship, confront old demons with current realities, and stay a step ahead of outside forces who become aware of the gold. Lee, once again teaming up with KkKlansman screenwriter Kevin Willmott, retool Danny Bilson and Paul DeMeo’s initial 2013 script into a film that’s part action thriller, part war drama, and social commentary on the difficulties Black soldiers dealt with in the field and once they came home. Lee and cinematographer Newton Thomas Siegel makes exceptional use of the Southeast Asian landscape, capturing both the horrors of war and the country’s stunning reversal into a capitalist driven nation. The addition of Marvin Gaye’s seminal What’s Goin’ On serving as the film’s Greek chorus is nothing short of amazing. Delroy Lindo delivers a career defining performance as the tightly wound, MAGA loving Paul. Fueled by rage, guilt, greed and PTSD, he all but consumes the screen. Clark Peters shows why he’s one of the best character actors working today as the level headed Otis, the former medic whose journey back to Vietnam has even more deeper personal overtones than the others. Jonathan Majors – last seen in The Last Black Man In San Francisco – yet again shows why he’s one of the best young actors as David, the son who shoehorns his way into the mission with the hopes of finding the father he never quite knew or understood. This is Spike Lee hitting a new creative gear and with this cast and crew, it has all the making of a big night at the Oscars. Da 5 Bloods is available now on Netflix.
LISTEN TO THIS
Fetch The Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple. Over the past 8 years, Fiona Apple got together with her frequent collaborators Amy Aileen Wood, Sebastian Steinberg and David Garza to record songs that gives new meaning to the term ‘homegrown’. The sessions are the basis of Apple’s 5th album, and the results are simply stunning. Apple takes us on a musical travelogue that taps into her experiences with being bullied (‘Shameika’, ‘Relay’,), anxiety (‘Heavy Balloon’), and the many facets of her current state of mind (‘I Want You To Love Me’, ‘On I Go’). But the core of the album also deals with the ramifications of toxic relationships (‘Under The Table’, ‘Rack Of His’, ‘Cosmonauts’, ‘For Her’) and songs addressed to the new women in her ex’s lives (‘Newspaper’, ‘Ladies’). It’s Fiona Apple at her most incisive, biting, and introspective, anchored by a terrific band handling the complex musical arrangements accompanied every day household sounds, bells and even the resident dogs. This is what happens when an artist is giving the opportunity to be loose, uninhibited and completely free to express. Here is the first full true contender for album of the year, if not for the decade. Fetch The Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple is available now through Amazon, Apple Music, and major streaming services.
El Dorado by Marcus King. He’s only 23, but Marcus King has been playing professionally for over a decade and has recorded three critically acclaimed albums under The Marcus King Band. But now, after gaining national attention with a show stopping set at Eric Clapton’s 2019 Crossroads Guitar Festival, King is releasing his first official solo album. Produced by Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys, King fuses rock, soul, R&B, gospel and country that stands alongside the classic recordings that came out of Memphis in the late 60s and early 70s. His guitar work crushes, but what really stands out is King’s vocals, which convey a feel and experience well beyond his years. The ballads on the album – particularly ‘Wildflowers & Wine’ – will wreck you. Auerbach’s production work keeps it simple, presenting a live in the studio feel that gives King and the band – which includes American Sound Studio vets Gene Chrisman (drums), and keyboardist Bobby Wood – plenty of room to let the material come free and easy. This officially marks the arrival of the next great singer-songwriter-guitarist. El Dorado by Marcus King is available now through Amazon, Apple Music and all major streaming outlets.
Shelby Lynne by Shelby Lynne. The latest album from the Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter was originally intended to be included in a film directed by Cynthia Mort. The film never materialized, the songs (many of which were co-written with Mort) are incredible. Lynne plays all of the instruments (including sax) throughout, with being material that ranges from the sultry (‘I Got You’), defiant (‘Here I Am’), mournful (‘Weather’, Revolving Broken Heart’, ‘My Mind’s Riot) and restless (‘Strange Times’, ‘Off My Mind’, ‘Don’t Even Believe In Love’). The sparse, stripped down arrangements makes the songs more intimate, making it sound like you are dropping in a late night conversation than a recording session. Blurring the lines between soul, gospel, R&B, torch and rock, Lynne’s vocals are nothing short of sublime, sounding more like she’s lived these songs as much as she’s performing them. This is yet another highlight in a career that has been nothing short of legendary. Shelby Lynne by Shelby Lynne is available now through Amazon, Apple Music and all major streaming outlets.
Good Souls, Better Angels by Lucinda Williams. Lucinda Williams wouldn’t have known that a global pandemic was happening, but for her latest studio album – her first in 4 years – it sounds like most of the material was written over the past few months. Her biting critique of the President, ‘Man Without A Soul, has been getting a lot of attention, but the rest of the album is loaded with stinging observations of a world gone wrong (‘Bad News Blues’, ‘Bone Of Contention’); abusive relationships (‘Wakin’ Up); and extended dark meditations that look for light at the end of a very dark tunnel (‘Big Black Train’, ‘Pray The Devil Back To Hell’, ‘Shadows & Doubts’, ‘When The Way Gets Dark’). 40 years after her debut, Williams is still at the top of her game, anchoring a band that effortlessly shifts from bar room rockers, back alley blues and moody, jazz-infused ballads – all with a defiant, punk rock edge bubbling underneath. It’s another winner from a singer-songwriter who never disappoints. Good Souls, Better Angels by Lucinda Williams is available now through Amazon, Apple Music and all major streaming outlets.
Earth by EOB. Radiohead guitarist Ed O’Brien doesn’t have the name recognition of his bandmates Thom Yorke or Jonny Greenwood, but with the release of his debut solo album, it will show why he’s a key cog in their musical machine. Working under the name EOB, the album features off kilter rockers (‘Shangri-La’), moody electronics and deep grooves (Brasil, Deep Days); introspective acoustic songs (‘Long Time Comin’, Mass, Sail On), punchy political commentary (Banksters) and much more. Whether you want to groove out or chill out, O’Brien delivers an album that’s on par with any of the material that you can find on his parent band. Earth by EOB is available now through Amazon, Apple Music and all major streaming services.
Aloha by Son Little. For this 3rd album, singer-songwriter Son Little made a number of creative changes. The Philly born multi-instrumentalist put the songs in the hands of an outside producer (French studio wiz Renaud Letang), and rather than let the recording process play itself out over time, Little and Letang were able to knock out the entire album in just 8 days. Playing nearly every instrument, Little blends elements of old school R&B, classic soul, a touch of Afrobeat, and D.I.Y indie rock to a remarkable effect. It’s hard to be familiar and fresh at the same time, but Son Little has found a way to shape a sound that is truly his own. It’s another gem for one of music’s most unique and singular voices. Aloha by Son Little is available now through Amazon, Apple Music and all major streaming services.
Italian Ice by Nicole Atkins. After releasing the excellent Goodnight Rhonda Lee in 2017, Nicole Atkins went to the legendary Muscle Shoals Studios to continue to mine the deep well of American music. Teaming with members of The Swampers (Spooner Oldham and David Hood), Binky Griptite of The Dap-Kings, Jim Sclavunos & Dave Sherman (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds), John Paul White, Erin Rae, McKenzie Smith (St. Vincent), and Alabama Shakes producer Ben Sherman, Atkins has put together an Americana mix tape: There’s a slab of R&B/Soul (‘Am Gold’); bouncy electro-funk (‘Domino’); old school country (‘Never Going Home Again’); Beatles-que balladry (‘Captain’); grove-based alt-rock (‘Mind Eraser’); and Brill Building pop (‘St Dymphna’, ‘Forever’, ‘Road To Nowhere’, ‘These Old Roses’). Atkins handles all of the material wonderfully, re-affirming her place as one of the best versatile voices working today, backed by a killer band and no-frills, in the moment production. How do you follow up an amazing album? Make another one. Italian Ice by Nicole Atkins is available now through Amazon, Apple Music and all available streaming services.
Ghosts Of West Virginia by Steve Earle & The Dukes. Steve Earle had originally written the material as part of Coal Country, an off-Broadway play about the 29 West Virginia miners who were killed in the explosion of the Upper Big Branch mine in 2010. Earle was part of the production, performing as he said was ‘a Greek chorus with a guitar’, but the project got shut down due to the pandemic. Serving as a companion piece for the play, Earle & The Dukes deliver a 10 song set that covers everything from country-rock & blues romps (‘Fastest Man Alive’, ‘The Devil Put The Coal In The Ground’), roots music (‘John Henry Was A Steel Drivin’ Man’, ‘Union, God And Country’) and gospel (‘Heaven Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere). ‘Black Lung’, ‘Time Is Never On Our Side’, and ‘If I Could See Your Face Again’ (sung beautifully by Eleanor Whitmore), features Earle’s best songwriting, tapping into the West Virginian mining community – most of whom don’t share his leftist views – with vivid detail, clarity and without judgement. No wrath is spared on ‘It’s About Blood’ which channels the anger over the revelations that there was an attempted cover-up of the many safety violations that made the mining disaster all but inevitable. Earle’s minute plus reading of those who were lost – with his anger building with each name – reminds us all of the sacrifices that are made by the workers. This is Steve Earle hitting a new artistic peak, letting those who were lost a chance to live again through the power of music. Ghosts Of West Virginia by Steve Earle & The Dukes is available now through Amazon, Apple Music, and all major streaming services.
The New Abnormal by The Strokes. After doing a number of side projects, The Strokes came back with their first album in a 7 years. With legendary producer Rick Rubin at the helm, the group have balanced the guitar driven sound of the first two albums with the experimentation and outside influences of their most recent output. For a band usually associated with 70s guitar driven rock, there’s a decidedly 80s New Wave presence throughout, recalling some of the best work by Human League, Modern English and New Order. ‘Bad Decisions’ owes so much to ‘Dancing With Myself’ that Billy Idol and Tony James receive songwriting credit. By incorporating this new musical infusion, The Strokes have put together their most consistent and cohesive album since their debut. A solid and welcome return to form. The New Abnormal by The Strokes is available now on Amazon, Apple Music and all major streaming outlets.
Walking Proof by Lilly Hiatt. For the follow-up to her critically acclaimed Trinity Lane, Lilly Hiatt looks at the world around her to craft a dreamy song cycle about friends, family and a Nashville in the midst of transition. Working with producer Lincoln Parish,
Hiatt forges a new sound that combines elements of traditional country, indie rock and little hints of pop into a sound that distinctively her own. She’s leading a new Nashville movement that includes artists such as Aaron Lee Tasjan and Amanda Shires, both of whom appear on the new album. With incisive songwriting, crisp production and vocals that sounds like she’s descended from Loretta Lynn and Emmylou Harris, Lilly Hiatt is the living proof that the Nashville sound is about to embark on a new course of greatness. Walking Proof by Lilly Hiatt is available now through Amazon, Apple Music and all major streaming services.
Rough and Rowdy Ways by Bob Dylan. Like a musical Moses coming down from the mountain, Dylan’s first album of new material in 8 years delivers the perfect soundtrack to a world gone mad. Anchored by his road band of rhythm killers (which includes guitarist Charlie Sexton and long time bassist Tony Gardiner) and guest appearances by Benmont Tench, Fiona Apple, Blake Mills, Alan Pasqua and Tommy Rhodes, Dylan put fractured hymns, lovelorn waltzes, down and dirty blues and dark noir through his highly imaginative filter, ripe with references and characters that run from the historical to the cultural. It’s a journey through every nook and crevice of an America that you read about in pulp novels or a see in Scorsese or Tarantino films. This isn’t an album as much as it is an experience. Another master work from a master artist. Rough And Rowdy Ways by Bob Dylan is available now though Amazon, Apple Music and all major streaming services.

Final Draft: The Collected Work Of David Carr. In the documentary Page One: Inside The New York Times, viewers got to see their long time cultural writer David Carr at his abrasive, salty best. When he passed away in 2015, the world of journalism lost one of its best writers and one of the medium’s staunchest defenders. His widow, Judy Rooney Carr edited this new book featuring Carr’s strongest works through his 25 year career. It features everything from his early pieces for The Twin Cities Reader in Minneapolis; the Washington City Paper, The Atlantic, New York Magazine, and finally, The New York Times. What’s extraordinary about Carr’s output is that he was able to cover unknown civil servants and rock n rollers with the same passion as political leaders, while tearing down those who try to move journalism in a new (and not necessarily good) direction. With a forward by Carr disciple Ta-Nehisi Coates, this is the definitive look at one of the last true giants of journalism. Final Draft: The Collected Work Of David Carr is available now through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and all major book retailers.
We Want Our Bodies Back by Jessica Care Moore. The latest work from this critically acclaimed writer, performer, activist and musician speaks about the relentless pain, suffering, and scrutiny that Black women strictly because of their race and gender. While it deals with the mental barriers that Black women have to built to deal with sexual assault, stereotypes, objectification and patriarchy, Moore also celebrates their emotional strength and resiliency that has kept them. It’s a defiant and powerful exploration of Black culture and of the human spirit. We Want Our Bodies by Jessica Care Moore is available now through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and major book retailers.
