I’m turning into a big movie-guy.
I’ve always enjoyed movies and I mean how can you not when your wife of twenty years is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to film.
Each night I find myself eagerly searching for a new movie to watch. Some I have seen before, and some, well it’s the first time.
Saturday night I was browsing Netflix and came across a film titled, “White Irish Drinkers.” I read the description and thought I’d give it a shot.
John Gray is the writer, producer and director of the movie about an Irish family from Bay Ridge.
I will not go into detail but let me say, if you read Container Diaries, I know you will love this film.
I mentioned the movie to my wife, she looked it up and corrected me when I told her their weren’t any “name” actors. She started rattling off everyone and their previous work. Told ya, she’s an encyclopedia.
Here’s a short clip, have a look.
After extensive research on the film I found out Mr. Gray is from Bay Ridge and attended Bishop Ford.
How cool is that?
Do yourself a favor and see this film.
You will see a lot of similarities of what we went through growing up in the neighborhood. Oops, I just gave you a hint.
