July 3, 2019 – David’s father is described as being the polar opposite of his mother: Ron’s alcoholism is entrenched. One sequence describes a disastrous evening when father and son were out together, ending in a violent, embarrassing scene. Cale sings some lovely original songs, such as “Canada Geese,” co-written by himself and Matthew Dean Marsh. Though Cale’s singing voice is unremarkable, his acting talent gives the songs impact, and he gets good support from the darkly lit musical combo that accompanies him. (Lighting design is by the talented Jennifer Tipton.)
