Synopsis
Dick died last night, and Zeke and Earl don’t want anybody finding out how. That’s too bad though, cause news travels fast in small-town Alabama.
2019 Directed by Daniel Scheinert
Dick died last night, and Zeke and Earl don’t want anybody finding out how. That’s too bad though, cause news travels fast in small-town Alabama.
A surprisingly disturbing story with some genuinely hilarious moments and mostly great performances, it loses steam after the hour mark but it's still entertaining the entire way through. Very inspired by the Coen brothers but unfortunately never quite reaches the same heights. I particularly liked the dialogue here and most of the characters are suitably memorable for their distinct idiosyncrasies. Worth a watch. A24 continues to release some of the weirdest and most interesting films around.
you wouldn't believe me if i told you what this movie is about, but i will say that Nickelback is involved.
mostly just impressed that it exists.
don't know how to be objective about this since MY DAUGHTER PLAYS CYNTHIA
sorry for shouting
“Death by misadventure.”
Keep getting weird. Just don’t kill nobody (or yourself) in the process.

Lord Jesus Christ Almighty! Talking about a mess of a movie that will be sealed in my brain forever as it draws a morbid smile on my face every time I think of it. Part Coen Brothers, Part run-of-the-mill A24 template film and featuring a third act that gives The Happening big reveal a run for his money with the only exception this one kinda, sorta works. But damn, I don't think I ever gut laugh so hard at a twist in a long while. Ari Aster has some stiff competition homies. Yeeeeeee-haaaaw!
Just like I explained, the movie tonally is all over the place. There's a sort of Fargo quirky vibe that breathes throughout the entire…
Alguns filmes seguem a máxima de que, quanto menos você souber sobre ele, melhor será a experiência ao assisti-lo. É assim com “The Death of Dick Long”, de Daniel Scheinert, e a insanidade que é o desenrolar de seu enredo.
Antes de assistir, saiba apenas que se trata de uma comédia de humor politicamente incorreto com momentos capazes de gerar revolta em algumas pessoas.
Hoje a indicação é sem detalhes, assista por sua conta em risco (mas assista).
A prime example of why it’s best to go into a movie completely blind without knowing anything about it... you won’t be sorry
Completely changed my perspective on what cinema and Nickelback together could be. Criterion worthy. Good horse.
I am a big fan of basically every other thing Daniel Scheinert has directed. And there are nuggets of his voice in this film that I really appreciate.
Overall, the film didn't connect with me. I wish the characters had more distinction from each other early on. And I wish that they had some sort of growth-journey, no matter how absurd.
The tonal balance of absurd comedy and tragedy that Daniel usually pulls off so well didn't work for me in this one. Twist and revelations that might have been comedic mainly felt dark and real to me. The commission of a growth-journey for the characters left me feeling hopeless, like I had witnessed a tragedy and there was nothing else to say.
I still like Daniel Scheinert is super talented, this one just wasn't for me.
