Chris Valenti is another friend/filmmaker of mine (also a great musician and comic) and he has some really great comedy movies online and I just wanted to turn you on to his blog.
In 2009 he vowed to do a short film each month and he succeeded and I think that by setting a goal that is both a stretch and something that he can track, he made a great choice, and he achieved his goal! YAY!
For anyone who is a fan of SNL… especially the classic Saturday Night Live shows from the 70’s and 80’s… this is a great series of videos from Funny or Die that have all the actors that ever played U.S. presidents, going back to Chevy Chase as Ford.
There is the main video, directed by Ron Howard, and then the other “outtake” videos. I especially like the “dream sequence” with Dana Carvey as Bush Sr.!
I <3 Dan Aykroyd!
Oh, and only non-SNL person they had was Jim Carrey play Reagan. (”Tag you’re it!”) HAHA!
