SHAKESPEARE WAS A BIG GEORGE JONES FAN:
COWBOY JACK'S HOME MOVIES
D. Morgan Neville & Robert Gordon USA 2005 63min. BETA SP
"Cowboy" Jack Clement - legendary producer, musician, writer - sure loved shooting home movies, which are lovingly
assembled in this engaging documentary by Morgan Neville and Robert Gordon. We hear about Jack's accomplishments, yes, but
we also get to see him on a road trip to A.P. Carter's grave with good friend Johnny Cash; hear a reunited Porter and Dolly; and
listen to Waylon and Jesse Colter in an intimate studio setting singing "Let's All Help the Cowboys Sing the Blues." We watch, too,
as Bono, John Prine, and numerous others pass through Clement's Nashville home, a popular hangout for decades. The ease his
subjects show in front of his camera is testament to Clement's character. But as fun-loving as Clement continues to be, his
accomplishments are seriously impressive. Imposters could try, but as this film shows (with the help of some cool animation and
graphics), there'll only be one Cowboy. (Kurt Wolff)
