The Virtues of Practice

Is this a great movie? Maybe not. But it sure is entertaining. And I thought Timothee Chalamet’s performance – especially his singing and playing – was fantastic (Monica Barbaro and Edward Norton too).

This ain’t like cut to the hands of someone else playing the instrument. Or lip-syncing to someone else’s vocal performance. This be him. Well done, I say. Natural talent? I don’t know about that, but I am definitely inviting him to next year’s Dylan Open Mic.

Apparently he worked at it for five years.

I left the theater and took a banjo out of the library.
