False Intel

@AVARY I’m sure people have already told you but please watch Mr Inbetween. Without a doubt the greatest TV show in decades that not enough people are talking about. It’s amazing!

I just finished Season One of 2018’s Barry, Bill Hader & Alec Berg’s excellent dramatic comedy about an ex-Marine turned contract killer who becomes entangled with the Azerbaijanian mob in Los Angeles while stumbling into an acting class run by Henry Winkler. Thoughtful and well-written, with hilarious performances all around, Barry manages to balance the comedy by finding absurd truth in the situations. Hader & Winkler won Emmys for their performances (and Hader won a well-deserved DGA award) but Anthony Carrigan’s NoHo Hank is a revelation, and Stephen Root is brilliant as Barry’s handler. There are so many insights into humanity and personal identity, and the struggle for success in the Los Angeles dream factory, that I found myself emotionally engaged well beyond expectation. The series is something of a cousin to John Cusack’s terrific Grosse Pointe Blank, and if you like that film you’ll love Barry. The question is, does it maintain its excellence through its two year Covid-19 shutdown and subsequent culture collapse for seasons 2-4?

‘Unhappy Hour’ was written by me as a theme tune for a character that deals out justice ‘Get Carter’ style to fellow gangsters who get on his wrong side. The question is which fist will they receive? ‘Hurt’ or his favourite marked ‘Kill’ 👊 youtu.be/z3R6KEkWadc?si…
