Part of our ongoing series of film screenings at The Gingerbread House (right next door to Foxy)!
The Death of Dick Long (US, 2020)
Gingerbread House
1921 Bull Street (next to Foxy Loxy Cafe)
One of the best independent films in many years, The Death of Dick Long is the most original tragicomedy that is guaranteed to stay on your mind till you lose it. All I can say before you see it is that it’s set in a small-town Alabama where Zeke and Earl scramble to cover up the likely illegal events that led to their friend's death while trying to dodge their families, the cops, and one horrified medical examiner. 100 minutes.
“You may not like where the movie takes you, but damn if you won't enjoy the ride.” San Diego Reader
“Indie moviegoers looking for an off-road excursion likely to trigger more than a few exhortations of "oh no" - as both laughs and gasps - could turn this Death into something with cult life.” The Wrap
“It subverts expectations with gratifying results indicative of shrewd storytelling at work.” indieWire
“You can feel your brain melting away as you watch it, and that's not always a bad sensation” New York Magazine
“The Death of Dick Long is a black-as-pitch comedy with a surprisingly big heart.” Screen Anarchy
