Kelsey Grammer and Jackson White in The Space Between (2021)

Golden Globe™ Winner Kelsey Grammer stars in the inspiring coming of age story, set during the iconic 90s LA music scene. Micky Adams (Grammer), an eccentric has-been rock musician, loses his grip on reality all while his record label is looking to drop him and his newly created “unique” albums. In hopes of breaking out of the record-label mailroom, a young Charlie Porter is tasked with traveling to the musician’s bizarre home and forcing Micky Adams out of his contract. Micky realizes Charlie could be the key to an artistic break through, and the pair’s unlikely friendship grows. The odd but powerful bond helps both gain perspective from each other on the music industry, life, love…and the space between.

Wissenswertes
Mickey Adams may be inspired, in part, by the real-life genius songwriter/musician Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys. Mickey keeps a piano in an inspired location to write. Brian Wilson famously kept a piano in a full-sized sand box in the living room of his former Hollywood Hills home so that he would think of the beach as he composed new songs. Additionally, Brian Wilson was obsessed with the song "Be My Baby" by The Ronettes, going so far as to listen to the recording an estimated 1,000 times. Mickey's doorbell plays the opening to "Be My Baby".

Patzer
At approximately 25 minutes into movie during their first meeting at pool. In the background you can here bird song. One of the birds is a Eastern whip-poor-will. This would not be heard during the day as it's a nocturnal bird.

Kelsey Grammers best movie?

I do think this might be Grammers best movie to date. A feelgood drama that doesn't take itself too seriously.

We follow a young man trying to make a career in the music industry, tasked with ending the contract of old, has been pop-star Mickey Adams. Things doesn't go as planned.

The film bubble along while we get to know the characters, all to a beautiful California backdrop.

The film could have used a bit more time to get some more depth out of the characters, feels like you just scratched the surface. Also, sometimes it feels like the film doesn't know what it want to be, a comedy, feelgood or drama?

It does have a rather cute ending and I left it with a lingering smile. Well worth a watch, but don't expect a laugh out loud comedy.

Oh, and Mr Grammer still knows how to sing!
