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.

Trivia
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".

Goofs
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.

Has Its Own Charm

It's another aging musician finds redemption story but the writing is solid, dialog witty, and actors very good with depth and substance. If that's the kind of movie you like, you'll enjoy this one. Don't hate it because it's not ground-breaking or doesn't have relentless action and hot sex. It does, however, have Kelsey Grammer singing and acting as good or better than you've ever seen him and some new faces you'll want to remember and see again.
