I know Sunset Boulevard is next on the list, but I want to invoke executive privilege and bump that back a week so we can watch Miss Sharon Jones! (2015) on Friday. This documentary by Barbara Kopple is about the amazing soul singer who passed away just last month from pancreatic cancer.

Yuriko and I were lucky enough to see Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings perform a couple times--once in Wilmington and once in Philadelphia--and we were blown away by her talent, energy, and humanity. In honor of her memory, let's watch this feature-length documentary about her struggle and her artistry.

Showtime:
Friday, January 13th
Matt and Yuriko's place
Drinks and snacks at 7pm
Movie at 7:30pm
