I saw 'Funny People' yesterday. I think it is absolutely fantastic. Adam Sandler's best movie to date.....and possibly my favorite Apatow movie.....although I love them all. Besides the hilarity of the stand-up, it was a great story. Jason Schwartzman was awesome. He and Sandler managed to get a couple of records on the soundtrack. The movie starts with 'Great Day' (McCartney) and ends with 'Watchin the Wheels' (Lennon) with all kinds of good stuff in between......and Wilco gets a shout in the actual movie. These guys obviously like good music because I always notice the songs in Apatow movies.
Coconut Records (Jason Schwartzman's band) had two tracks off their latest album 'Davy.' Here's a sampler...check out 'Wires.'
Yeah, loved the movie AND soundtrack. Love the blog, Ab.
