Get Low

A movie spun out of equal parts folk tale, fable and real-life legend about the mysterious, 1930s Tennessee hermit who famously threw his own rollicking funeral party while he was still alive. Awash in in humanity, warmth, insight, and wit, this excellent film stars Robert Duvall, who once again proves why he is one of America’s most beloved actors.

This is among his best performances and the supporting cast of Bill Murray and Sissy Spacek brings the story to life in a meaningful and heartfelt way.

Critic Reviews:

• " Highly unusual drama – with black comedy elements – which allows Duvall to showcase his refined skills. " – Ben McEachen

• " The mighty Robert Duvall delivers an astounding turn as a man whose soul is burdened by the weight of regret in Get Low. " – Matthew Pejkovic

• " Get Low is a handmade kind of film. Its ambitions are modest, but fully attained. I rarely use the words go see it, but I hope a lot of people do. " – Paul Byrnes
