CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com appears on “The Morning Mess” with Dan Baker on WBGR-FM (Monroe, Wisconsin) on May 6th, 2021, reviewing the new film “Here Today” in theaters (check local listings) beginning May 7th.

Billy Crystal is Charlie Berns, a notable comedy writer of films and stage plays, who is now a producer on a Saturday Night Live-type show. He has been diagnosed with dementia, and is keeping it from his son and daughter (Penn Bagdley and Laura Benanti). Enter Emma (Tiffany Haddish), who has won a free lunch with Charlie through an ex-boyfriend, but has no idea who he is. They become friends and then much more, and Emma begins encouraging Charlie to finish his memoir through his spotty memories, including the events that made him a widower.
