Fishing With John only ever had six episodes, and they average about 25 minutes apiece; you can watch the whole thing in less time than
The Irishman. Produced in 1990 and 1991 with money from a now-gone Japanese production company—the Lounge Lizards were big in that country—the series languished for years without domestic distribution, occasionally surfacing at film festivals or trade shows before IFC finally picked it up in 1998. Although early press mentioned an episode with Isabella Rossellini, by the time the show hit TV screens she’d vanished, and Lurie’s fishing trip with Dennis Hopper was stretched to fill the last two episodes. I’d love to know whether Isabella Rossellini ever went fishing, but “too much Dennis Hopper footage for one episode” is an extremely high-class problem to have. There’s no better place to start
