Movie #1558 ........................."Trevor Noah: Afraid of the Dark"

Movie #1558 "Trevor Noah:  Afraid of the Dark" --- streamed this on netflix the other night, and it was a lot of fun.  He does what I would term "smart" comedy --- i.e., he's pretty witty with his take on things --- he's a great listener and observer , and he shows that in this show, which only lasts about 60 minutes.  I hardly ever watch standup comedy, but he's an exception.  I watch him daily on his show, and no matter how bad the news is, he manages to make me laugh.  Here, he touches on new yorkers, and he does several other bits about traveling that I really enjoyed. (esp. this man from India's disc with a tourist).  I'd give it 4 stars out of 5.

"TREVOR NOAH:  AFRAID OF THE DARK"      2017       1 HOUR     not for kids

the host of "The Daily Show" ponders the period of naming countries, how traffic lights turn New Yorkers invincible and why you shouldn't drink in Scotland.

“The Daily Show” host’s latest stand-up special isn’t as political as you might expect. But he shares stories of how, in the wake of a Trump presidency, even white people are asking Noah about moving to South Africa. One highlight is his extended conversation between a native of India and the first British colonizer17. Trevor Noah – "Afraid of the Dark"
