Synopsis:
The most unlikely comeback of the year. Dennis Lambert was one of the most successful and diverse songwriter/producers of the '70s and '80s, with hits like 'Ain't No Woman Like The One I've Got', 'Rhinestone Cowboy', "Don't Pull Your Love", 'Baby Come Back' and 'Nightshift'. Today, he's a 60-year-old family man selling real estate in Florida. But it turns out his obscure 1972 solo album is hugeĆ in the Philippines. A Filipino concert promoter has been begging Dennis to tour for decades, and in 2007 he finally agreed. 'Of All The Things' is a hilarious and touching pop/rock/country/R&B documentary that follows Dennis on his whirlwind tour as he rediscovers his passion for music -- a two week adventure that takes him from the comforts of Boca Raton to a sold-out show at Manila's famous Araneta Coliseum for thousands of fans he never knew he had. Some lives deserve an encore. Director's Bio:
Jody Lambert was born and raised in Los Angeles. He was a child actor and musician before moving to NYC to attend NYU's film program. He switched majors to acting, where he studied at the Atlantic Theater Acting School. For the past 15 years, he's lived in New York's East Village and has worked at some of downtown's best theaters, including ps122, the Ohio, HERE and the Atlantic Theater Company. He also helped in the creation of the New York International Fringe Festival and traveled to the Edinburgh Fringe with several award-winning productions. 'Of All The Things' is his directorial debut. |
