Biography

The film Get Low is a magical and moving blend of folk tale, fable and real-life legend. Spun in the Southern storytelling tradition, it is about the mysterious 1930s Tennessee hermit who famously threw his own rollicking funeral party ... while he was still alive. Academy Award winner Robert Duvall, Golden Globe winner Bill Murray, Academy Award winner Sissy Spacek, and Lucas Black form an ensemble of unforgettable characters who bring to life the surprising last act of Felix Bush, a life-long maverick and misfit who has been nearly swallowed up by the power of his town’s sinister myths about him, until he sets out to make a shocking confession in front of his own memorial service. The result is a comic, poignant, and at times haunting tale about the snowballing nature of secrets, stories, heartbreak and the desire for redemption.
