Recently I had the opportunity too meet a film icon.. Melvin Van Pebbles.. Melvin was doing one of his famous and rare one man plays at Nuyorican Theater. It was call b'rer soul. Damn I got to get a digital camera to take pictures with.... So there i was with the greatest film maker of my time, on stage 15 feet in front of me. Fuck a Jay Z or LiL Wanye. He's the real deal, this brother has fought battles and is still doing his thing. As film enthusiast, we should all hope too have a life and career of film as long as his and get our reverence. It was one of the few time, I felt accomplished enough in my life to just sit back and enjoy the show... Seeing him was a real accomplishment and I look forward to doing it again real soon.... He's going to be at the Apollo Theather(http://apollotheater.org/index.html) on April 24th and I plan on being there again.. I should also note that my business partners friend is also Melvin's partner in a film company they have, so I will once again get to see my idol and get a signed copy of Sweet Sweet Back or Badasssss..
