4.45pm: Job seven. Another patient who doesn’t need to go to hospital. All her observations are good, she’s given advice, and we go outside so that James can finish his paperwork. I’m hungry again so I take the chance to grab some carrot and hummus and cottage cheese on oat cakes. All done and ready to go again. Not long until we’re done for the day. So tired now. 5.30pm: Straight into job eight. A quick job and straight into hospital. Another patient with COVID-19, so I’m back into my obsessive cleaning mode. I bump into one of my old crew mates from last year, Liam. He’s become a friend, but I’ve not seen him ages so it’s nice to have a catch up. I manage to grab a few minutes down time and decide to finally tuck into the cake. And I’m glad I did, it’s delicious. 6.15pm: James has finished and we are now in our 15-minute Category 1 period, which means we can only be called onto a job if it’s a serious, life-threatening emergency and we are the closest to attend. We head back to station and luckily, we don’t get called to anything. 6.35pm: We’re back at the station. We tidy the ambulance, empty the bins, and pack up our kit. 7pm: Tiredness has well and truly got the better of me. Too wiped out to cook, I order a wrap from Nando’s with corn and peas in advance of getting home. I jump in the car and dial my mum as I head off. I obviously want to check-in on my folks, but mainly I’m dying to see how my dog has been. He’s had a good day with his Grandpawrents. ANDIEZ Dogs Before Dudes Shirt I don’t see him until after tomorrow’s shift as it’s easier all round and less confusing for him. 9pm: Feels like ages since I was last in bed. I know I’ll be asleep in minutes. My eyes sting and my brain has even given up thinking now. I close my eyes before I’m back to doing it all again tomorrow.

The teachers they see on Zoom have shorter classes, but give them a lot more work. As a film critic, it’s a similar situation. We used to go to the movie theatres twice a week, for a film the studio was screening for us. And maybe every few weeks, there’d be an indie movie that would have a link sent to us so we could view it online; or we’d get a DVD sent to us in the mail. Yet with movie theatres closed, now all the big studios are sending their blockbuster films for us to watch at home, and we’re being sent a lot more foreign and indie films as well. I’ve been watching about six movies a week (although it’s a lot more this time of the year, as we have to vote on the films for various awards groups I’m part of). So when I saw a film come in called The Independents, and saw it was about musicians…I rolled my eyes.

Dogs wearing this Shirt

That’s probably because I thought of the Descendants, who were a punk band in the ‘70s, and a bully at my school who always wore a dirty T-shirt of that band. It’s weird how a memory from childhood can be so powerful. When my wife and I sat down to watch this, another childhood memory popped up. I was in a history class in 8th grade and we had a substitute teacher. The regular teacher was tough, always giving us pop quizzes and lots of homework (side note: this is the most I’ve mentioned homework in a movie review, including teen comedies that take place in school). The substitute teacher was telling us that Mr. Hartman didn’t leave an assignment for us, so he was just going to talk movies. He said, “A few nights ago, I saw the most amazing movie, with great special effects. It was called An American Werewolf in London.” He was so excited and animated talking about this, I was determined to see it. Since the movie was rated R, that didn’t happen until it made it on HBO a year later. Of course, I was blown away. Michael Jackson was so blown away, he used those same make-up artists when he did a video for his album Thriller the following year. It wasn’t just the special effects that blew me away, though. I loved the charm of the leading actor, David Naughton. I had seen him in Dr. Pepper commercials, but here he was blending humor and horror. This was at a time when movies didn’t combine genres. So it was great to see another Naughton, David’s nephew, Greg, and his band The Sweet Remains. They made a fictional movie about a band (where they all play the parts). Greg Naughton has a Jackson Browne vibe. Rich Price has a James ANDIEZ Dogs Before Dudes Shirt Taylor vibe. And Brian Chartland has a Dinosaur Jr. Vibe. Hey…he can’t be offended by that. I mean, he’s playing the long-haired, creepy hitchhiker they pick up. Greg Naughton went from writing songs to writing, directing, and producing this movie. It might seem like an arduous task for a singing keyboardist, but his dad was two-time Tony winner James Naughton. His wife Kelli O’Hara (who is also in this) has also received a Tony. Now, this movie might not win any awards, other than a few small film festivals. That’s not a knock on the picture. It’s a terrific little love letter to struggling musicians. It reminds me of the trilogy of films I’ve loved by John Carney — Once, Sing Street, and Begin Again (Mark Ruffalo, Keira Knightley, Adam Levine). This fictional story starts with Rich, a grad student in New York, working on his dissertation. He writes songs in his apartment, which bugs the crap out of an old lady who lives upstairs (she should be glad it’s an acoustic guitar and not an electric, as my first roommate had). Another neighbor (Greg) sometimes stands by the door and listens. They cross paths on campus when Greg is trimming trees, and a branch almost hits him.

When I see ANDIEZ Dogs and  Dudes Shirt

This leads to them quickly working on songs together. It helps that he has a makeshift studio in his broken down van (which would look awesome, if I didn’t just see the studio Riz Ahmed has in his RV in Sound of Metal). The duo ends up deciding to try their luck at a big folk festival in Ohio. For reasons that would only make sense in a movie, they pick up a long-haired, scraggly hitchhiker. This is Brian, who might not say a lot at first, but he hears them working on their songs, and joins. Now they’re a trio, and nothing can stop them! Well, okay. Lots of things can stop them — a cop (played brilliantly by James Naughton), an unhappy girlfriend, nagging parents, professors that don’t like your thesis, etc. Of course they’ll play a few places along the way. One of those leads to a great scene, where a hot shot record promoter from L.A. (played by the always brilliant Richard Kind) lines up a showcase for them at the Troubadour. He’s one of those guys that you can picture having a cigar in his mouth while on the phone, yelling at his secretary to “Hold all my calls!” And just as we all love sports movies where we root for the underdog (even if you know how it’s going to end), you don’t quite know how this is going to end. This film doesn’t follow all the usual tropes, which is nice; although, I did feel it needed a bit more. I would have liked to have seen a few conversations where these guys really connect talking about bands they love, or other life experiences. For example, there’s a humorous scene where Greg talks about keeping his job because of the benefits. The response is, “You get benefits trimming trees?” A few more of those humorous moments would have made for a better film. Don’t get me wrong — I laughed hysterically at the way a depressed member of the band is downing booze in a Mexican restaurant when Greg comes in. An acknowledgement is made of the mariachi band playing. “Yeah, they’re pretty good.” Or when Richard Kind introduces them to a guy from Columbia Records (the label that had big troubadours like Dylan and Springsteen). I won’t spoil that joke, but my wife and I were in tears laughing. I also thought a bit more could have been done with Price’s character. He is just a bit too much of a sad sack. Now, once stuff started going south for them, I’d be fine with his depressed vibe. I just thought in the early parts of the movie, he should have had a bit more enthusiasm. For a small budget picture, ANDIEZ Dogs Before Dudes Shirt the cinematography (Piero Basso) is pleasant and creates a good atmosphere of the coffee houses and lounges where the trio play. You can almost smell the cigarettes and stale beer. One thing that works nicely is that the songs are great. That’s one of the reasons Once was so enjoyable, too. These guys sound like a much better version of Crosby, Stills, and Nash…with a dash of James Taylor and John Mayer. Their 3-part harmonies are gorgeous (no Three Dog Night reference intended). Check out the movie The Independents. The bigger music movie coming out last weekend was the Billie Holiday film (which isn’t nearly as good). And when we can see live concerts again, check out their real-life band — The Sweet Remains. 3 ½ stars out of 5. I was thrilled to be able to talk to the three voices that make up the band The Sweet Remains, and harmonized so beautifully in The Independents, an indie movie that you can catch this weekend. Greg Naughton wrote, directed, and stars…along with his bandmates Rich Price and Brian Chartrand. Here’s what I asked them, and what they said. JOSH BOARD: I’m a movie critic, but also a hardcore music lover. I enjoyed that your movie tapped into both my loves, and that I enjoyed it on both those levels. It reminded me of Once and even the recent animated Soul (as the main character is a music teacher, who has a nagging mom telling him to stick with teaching). It also reminded me of smaller films I adored, like The Sapphires and Juliet, Naked. What are some of those music type movies you guys liked, and…before doing this film, did you bone up on watching some of those to help decide what direction you wanted to take this fictional story about your band? GREG NAUGHTON: Well thanks a lot, Josh. Love to hear it. Once was definitely a large influence. Not so much in the writing, but when I had finished the script and we were trying to decide what to do with it; and part of the discussion was to find someone to produce it with actors and all of that. I kept coming back to what I so loved about Once, which was the authenticity of the music. So we ultimately made the great leap of faith to try and do the film ourselves so that we could record as much of the musical moments “live” to camera as possible. Love all the John Carney films [Sing Street, Begin Again], though Once the most. And Crazy Heart [Jeff Bridges] was something I had just seen when writing this, so that had an influence. And loved Soul, but this was done before I got to see that.
