"Overall" is a documentary directed by Bruce Govers. We see on the screen the benefit of the beautiful comedian - Eddie Murphy. Sharp humor of the brilliant actor makes you laugh to tears.
In this film, Eddie is very young, and his play is different from the jokes that audiences are used to at a later time. For the eighties, this style is generally top aerobatics. Not every twenty-two-year-old novice artist can boast such a palette of humorous pearls, such brilliant wit and arrogance. After this picture, Murphy became not only popular: he became a real idol of the American public. close

The Concert in Central Park is a live album by Simon & Garfunkel. On September 19, 1981 the folk-rock duo reunited for a free concert on the Great Lawn of New York's Central Park attended by more than 500,000 people. They released a live album from the concert the following March (Warner Brothers LP 2BSK 3654; CD 3654). It was arranged by Paul Simon and Dave Grusin, and produced by Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel, Phil Ramone and Roy Halee. The concert was also shot on videotape, televised by HBO in 1982, and subsequently released on various home video formats. The VHS and DVD contain two songs that were omitted from the live album: "The Late Great Johnny Ace" and "Late in the Evening (Reprise)". "Johnny Ace" was disrupted by a fan rushing the stage who came very close to attacking Paul. This incident was both frightening and coincidental, as the song is an elegy upon the murder of John Lennon just one year earlier. close
