CDA: Rob Reiner

I was shocked to see the news of the murder of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. He was 78 years old. His father was the great Carl Reiner. Rob hit the scene as Mike aka Meathead on All in the Family. Here's a hilarious scene between him and Archie Bunker. This discussion about socks and shoes feels like Seinfeld to me, a big to-do about nothing.

He made a pivot to become a director in the early 80s. His first film is a classic, This is Spinal Tap.

He directed so many other great movies:

The Sure Thing

Stand By Me

The Princess Bride (my friend Liz's favorite movie)

Misery

A Few Good Men

The American President

And a movie that's both timeless and completely frozen in amber, When Harry Met Sally.

By the way, that's Rob Reiner's mom who gets the line that ends the scene.
