Best Bar in America
OK, It’s not often that I get geeked up about a new movie. Really. I can’t say for sure when the last time was that I entered a theater but I know that it’s been more than five years. But I might just have to break that streak for a new film coming out this spring - The Best Bar in America.
I’ll embed the trailer below but after only having seen it once there are already some pictures in my head that make me want to see it. The main character - long scruffy bead poorly hiding a youthful face - sits in a seedy tavern tapping away his review of that tavern on a laptop propped up on the bar. Same breaks a bottle over the head of an apparent monk in a bar fight. Same explains to a barfly with absolute sincerity and conviction that he’s reviewing every bar in the west.
A boozer’s Motorcycle Diaries? Could be!
