Edgar Wright’s Fandom Pays Off in “The Sparks Brothers” (Review)

First things first: you don't need to be familiar with the band Sparks to have a great time with Edgar Wright's fantastic new documentary. Before watching it, the extent of my musical knowledge about them came from enjoying their 1983 single "Cool Places," a duet with Jane Wiedlin of the Go-Go's.

In this case, it’s a girl, but it could literally be anything that has a positive impact.-Wicher The band just recently started playing shows again so keep your eyes peeled for more con...
