JACK BLACK

 

8:41-8:58 Jack Black

"Bush is a Nincompoop & Lieberman is Lame" That was Jack Black singing the title song for his new movie "School of Rock." Jack Black is a rising star in Hollywood, he has been in such films as "High Fidelity" and "Shallow Hal" and is a member of the ­ let's just say eclectic - band Tenacious D. Now Black, in his latest project, has jumped into the world of documentary film production. The documentary is called "60 Spins Around the Sun." It tells the story of comedian/activist Randy Credico, one of the leading critics of New York's Rockerfeller Drug laws. The documentary is directed by Black's girlfriend Laura Kightlinger. It premiers this Sunday at the AFI Fest in Los Angeles at the Arch Light Theater.

Yesterday at 4:00pm - around the time Jack Black wakes up - I caught up with him by telephone at his home in Los Angeles. Here is our conversation.
