One of Rob Reiner‘s last projects before his death was the release of a new book about “Spinal Tap,” his memorable 1984 music mockumentary, and the book has returned to Amazon’s bestsellers charts following the writer and director’s passing. “This Is Spinal Tap” was Reiner’s feature directorial debut and it became a critical — and cult — favorite, with reviewers ranking it among the all-time comedy classics while being selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry in 2002.
