It absolutely is. I love the concept of him breaking all the 'rules' of the afterlife because of his love for Meryl Streep.

I live in a facility due to advanced MS. A couple nights ago I mentioned Colbert to an aide. She thought I said cold beer. Same thing twice more when I said it. I said Colbert to a different aide this morning. Same result. I asked her if she ever heard of David Letterman. No. Johnny Carson. No. Here Albert Brooks is talking about Rudolph Valentino. We are old. Happy Thanksgiving!

Always enjoyed Albert Brooks. If you haven't seen his film "Modern Romance", I highly recommend it. There's a great scene between Brooks and his brother, Bob Einstein.

A good point. A legendary British rock band performed their last American gig as the original quartet on SNL at 30 Rock around this airdate on November 25, 1982. Then the frontman dies less than ten years.

Every now and then Albert kind of drifts into being possessed by Lenny Bruce. The pace of his speech and movements. For instance as he is talking about bowling. It was good.
