CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com appears on “The Morning Mess” with Scott Thompson on WBGR-FM (Monroe, Wisconsin) on August 6th, 2020, reviewing the new films (virtual theaters online, actual theaters) “I Used to Go There” and “Creem: America’s Only Rock ’N’ Roll Magazine.”
I Used to Go Here Directed by Chicagoan Kris Rey, and featuring Gillian Jacobs (“Community”), “Go Here” is a look at sorta mid-life crisis, as Jacobs portrays a 35-year-old novelist going back to her alma mater for a reading. There she encounters her first writing instructor (Jermaine Clement of “Flight of the Concords”) and some college kids giving her a taste of her own school day partying and nostalgia. It’s currently available on streaming platforms through “Virtual” Theaters and Limited actual theaters. 3/5 stars. Locally, it’s available for virtual download through MusicBoxTheatre.com.
