Alex Borstein: Corsets & Clown Suits (2023)
Interesting
Some parts were better than others. I liked the approach of comedy with music. The songs were funny, the jokes were funny. She missed the mark a few times, but like she said, "its free to watch- i mean you
didn't get prime to watch my show. " so i totally got my money's worth. What the *&^&, my review needs to be 600 words. Well let me just tell you, she was funny. I laughed. For another 200 words i'll mention how i laughed. She took some big swings and hit a few good ones. It was well rehearsed. The musicians were excellent. It wasn't just a stand up walking around an empty stage. It was more.
Black Earth Rising (2018)
Deeply compelling... but ....
Deeply compelling story, well constructed and many beautiful scenes and settings. And performances by each of the principle actors is moving and believable. Great casting. But the pacing is painfully slow. The 8 episodes could easily be condensed into 4. The b-roll and filler is excessive.
