i have seen this movie and was utterly blown away by the artistic touch it lends to a documentary. JIRO IS REAL!
Fuck yeah, Gelb!!!
Anyone know who reps this guy?
I’ve known the director for years. Haven’t seen this film yet, but I can already predict its brilliance. Gelb is the real deal; and I have not worked with a more talented, professional, and genuinely good guy since. Congrats buddy, you deserve everything that’s coming to you.
