Dave Matthews the actor

We just finished watching the 2005 movie Because of Winn-Dixie, based on the children’s book by the same name. It had its high points and low points but was a decent flick overall. The girl in the lead role could’ve been a better actor but did a passable job.

One character works in a pet shop and plays guitar. We’re watching him onscreen for the first time and I think, “wow, that guy looks like Dave Matthews.

Well, duh, it was Dave Matthews, and the truth is he’s a pretty good actor. He actually acted better than most anyone else in the movie. Who knew?
