I know I said I was taking a little break, but I just watched this film tonight and I really enjoyed it. I've only lived in Texas for two years and I knew nothing about the case, but I liked the quirkiness of this story.Jack Black is totally awesome in this role. Gone is the usual craziness that we usually expect from him. He nailed the part of a God loving funeral director that everybody loves.
Unfortunately, he's also guilty of murder. It's a true story, but it is Hollywood's version of it, so who knows how true it is. Skip Hollandsworth, a journalist in Texas wrote about Bernie and also helped write the screenplay. You can read the story here.

Don't worry, I'll be back, but it will be more like mid October. I couldn't find a contemporary pop song about that. I need a vacation to figure out what I'm going to do with my book and this blog.
I thank you for stopping by. Read some old posts. There's some really cool stuff on here.
