Another collaboration,this time with Bono, and Pavarotti. I think this is stunning and beautiful and heartbreaking. Pavarotti is exceptional and this makes me cry every time I hear him.

Continuing my must see TV series. Next up, The Night Of starring Riz Ahmed and John Turturro. Both amazing in their roles. Riz Ahmed shining at the start of his career really. John Turturro always criminally underrated. This is a brilliant, dark drama.

Another compelling and forgotten about TV series. Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. Such a waste that it wasn't renewed at the time. Brilliantly written and performed. Stellar casting from top to bottom. And should've been Matt Perry's legacy. I can watch it all day long.
