Vincent Gallo‘s The Brown Bunny is a great film despite the ridiculous hype surrounding it. Regarding the hype and the controversy I can only say that it’s not that big of a deal and only detracts from what is a compelling personal vision of loss and regret. It’s understated as expected but it wasn’t boring for one second. The look is also stylized and I loved the almost wordless scenes. The dialogue would only comprise a few pages but only Gallo could’ve directed this to give it the correct feel and pacing. It’s a nice companion piece to Buffalo ’66 although slightly less accessible.
