À propos de ce film

In the tiny town of Carthage, TX, assistant funeral director Bernie Tiede (Jack Black) was one of the town's most beloved residents. He taught Sunday school, sang in the church choir and was always willing to lend a helping hand. Everyone loved Bernie, so it came as no surprise when he befriended Marjorie Nugent (Shirley MacLaine), an affluent widow. Directed by acclaimed auteur Richard Linklater.

Notes et avis

Based on a true story, this is an excellent movie and a fantastic perfomance by Jack Black, who really shows his range as an actor. Don't expect him to be funny or silly, which does not mean his character is not likeable. Also, the real- life cast of Carthage residents nicely rounds out a collection of memorable characters. Very entertaining
