Review of Fell, Jumped or Pushed (2016) by Jmillett — 05 Nov 2016

I really liked this film. FELL, JUMPED, or PUSHED is a very clever and fun mockumentary with seriously fantastic performances and a lot of heart. Todd Peters (also the director/writer), Caroline Hall, Jeremy Rabb, Mark Boyett, and Blair Sams as the core crew of the documentary that is the subject of the film – and Andrei Belgrader as the over-the-top auteur – all gave seamless, grounded performances.

And the grandmothers! There is a scene in a bar with one of the grandmothers - I want to bottle her voice. She's amazing. (The blending of actors with "real people" is interesting and effective.

) The movie’s tone is akin to Christopher Guest films at their most real moments, and I laughed out loud more than once. This is a well done, entertaining indy film that I highly recommend.
