March 14 movie: The Legendary Nat King Cole. This was an hour long documentary, apparently made for TV, with a narrator who sounded unfortunately like John Oliver from The Daily Show. This left us waiting for him to say something snarky and ridiculous, which he never did. The documentary was pretty good, though it said a few things that weren't true according to the book I read.* The best part of the documentary was the bonus features, which included the complete performances of every song they had excerpted. It included a Trio-only version of "Nature Boy" (without strings) which I had never heard before.
*Nat King Cole by Daniel Mark Epstein. Really good book.
