En 1843, a pesar de que Charles Dickens es un escritor de éxito, el fracaso de su último libro pone su carrera en una encrucijada, hasta el momento en que, luchando con la inspiración y enfrentando su realidad actual con sus recuerdos de infancia, nace un nuevo personaje en las profundidades de su atribulada mente: un hombre viejo, solitario, amargado, tan vívido, tan humano, que todo un mundo crece a su alrededor, una historia tan inspiradora que cambió el significado de la Navidad para siempre.
Director

Targeted as members of the Black Panther party the film follows their struggle against the miscarriage of justice and their cruel and unusual treatment. Their story culminated in 2016 with the release of Albert Woodfox after 43 years in solitary confinement.

"La La Wood" follows the legacy of Jiminy Glick, first introduced on "The Martin Short Show," who went on to get (non)-critical acclaim for his talk show "Primetime Glick," where Mr. Glick interviewed countless celebrities (which usually ended in verbally--sometimes physically--insulting/assaulting them). Now comes "La La Wood"--Jiminy Glick's home. This is his story (sort of).
