New Paul Simon Documentary
I just read there is a new 3.5 hour film about Paul Simon's life. It's only available on MGM+, which can apparently be accessed with a seven day free trial, if you're willing to go through the hassle. The NYT review says it's quite a good film, with lots of full-length songs.

I started watching it last night. So far it's pretty wonderful, but I'm biased since I came of age with the music of Simon & Garfunkel...

Stumbled on it and started watching. Such an interesting, talented man.
Was really happy to see him playing his Gurian JR. Made me get mine off the wall and play it a bit.

Big fan here. I really like this goofy song- sing some of it to my poodle, telling her she's "big and fat." (she's not).

I watched part one last night….there’s an amazing amount of vintage video footage and photo content. And the enigmatic Paul Simon always fascinates me. He is both grounded and totally out there both musically and philosophically.

Thoroughly enjoyed part 1. Got a kick out of the Mel Brooks story.
