I didn’t even know his latest flick, “Dolemite is My Name,” existed until a couple of days ago. Apparently, it’s been out on the Netflix for a couple of months now, but for some rea- son, nobody’s talking about it, even though it’s probably gon- na’ wind up being 2019’s fun- niest movie when it’s all said and done with. “Dolemite” is pretty much the perfect vehicle for Eddie Murphy, who seems to make movies less frequently than the summer Olympics these days. In it, he portrays the legendary Vaudeville comedian/exploita- tion movie hero Rudy Ray Moore, who more or less ele- vated raunchy bathroom wall poetry into an art form back in the ’70s. If you want to get kids into prose, tell their teachers to stop feeding ‘em bores like E.E. Cummings and Robert Frost and give them a taste of Moore’s infamous “Signifying Monkey” routine —when I say it’s a better display of verse than anything Rudyard Kipling ever wrote, I’m not even being sarcastic. So basically, “Dolemite” gives Eddie Murphy two whole hours to do what he does best, which is use the most flor- id permutations of profani- ty imaginable over and over again. And my goodness, does this flick have one of the most impressive ensemble casts I’ve seen in one picture in a long time. We’ve got Snoop Dogg playing a soul and funk DJ who refuses to play Eddie Murphy’s songs because he thinks titles like “Ring A-Ling Ding” are stupid. We’ve got Chris Rock playing a radio station talk show host who tries to get Dolemite to buy out his un- cle’s theater so he can show his movie none of the Hollywood studios want to pay for. We’ve got Wesley Snipes showing up to play the reluctant director of “Dolemite,” who keeps trying to impress people by talking about that one time Roman Polanski cast him as an eleva- tor attendant in “Rosemary’s Baby.” In fact, this movie is so star-studded, we’ve even got T.I. showing up to play a film financier who tries to con- vince Eddie Murphy that sub- urban audiences are gonna’ be showing up in droves to watch a movie called “Cornbread, Earl and Me” — and that’s to say nothing of Keegan-Mi- chael Key’s role as the frus- trated screenwriter, who tries his darndest to fit ample kung fu and car explosions into the movie’s microscopic budget at Eddie’s request. What we’ve got is a movie that’s reverential to its inspi- ration without being too enam- ored of its subject. It’s a flick that has no problem acknowl- edging that Rudy Ray Moore effectively stole his charac- ter by bribing derelicts with hooch so he could tape record their bawdy limericks, nor is it a movie that glosses over the fact that he was too cheap to rent out a real soundstage, so he made the film crew ba- sically squat in a vacant hotel while stealing electricity from their next door neighbors.

The timing of these functions will come. He is eating regularly. Our three dogs have a morning feed- ing routine. I divide a can of dog food into three bowls. Willie licks the residue from one side of the spoon while Toby licks the other side. After licking the spoon clean, Willie, Toby, and Saphie each get a canine multi-vitamin. Then Toby and Saphie get a glucosamine supplement; Toby with his food and Saphie catches her bone-shaped med from the air. Afterwards I fi x my breakfast which includes slices of cheddar cheese. Each dog prior to Willie’s injury would sit in their specifi c spot for a slice of cheese. Finally each dog receives a three-fl avor (chick- en, pork, and beef) rawhide chew to cap their morning routine. Needless to say, Willie’s immobility kept him from his usu- al spot near the kitchen — until a few days ago. As I cut slices of cheddar cheese, I heard movement at the doorway into the kitchen. Willie stood there waiting for his slice of cheese. He surprised me. I didn’t see him get up from his puppy pillow and walk across the living room to the door. I gave him his slice of cheese. Satisfi ed, he turned and walked back to his pillow. So much for keeping him still, but to see his determi- nation to get back to his routine — that is progress! Watching Willie, it seems he wants to do those things like he did before and he seems to get frustrated at not being able to use all four of his legs. I think he’s getting tired of me carrying him to his bathroom spot on a patch of grass by the driveway. The other morning he walked away from me down the driveway.
