IMO, Get Low is an excellent film with excellent performances from Robert Duvall and Bill Murray. I don’t think it will win the Academy Award for Best Picture next year, but it’s better than it’s not so that’s why it has a 100% rating from 18 top critics at Rotten Tomatoes.
JMO.
(Thought it was a little twee to name the wood-obsessed main character “Bush.” Then I found out that the inspiration for this “true tall tale” was a man named Bush who became famous for wanting to attend his own funeral back in the day. OK then.)
I’m up for seeing it again. I’m sure I will at some point.
It opens today at the Embarcadero and a few other places in the bay area.
