Two friends named Gerry become lost in the desert after taking a wrong turn. Their attempts to find their way home only lead them into further trouble.
Our read: Gerry (2002) (2002) reads as a heavy, slow-burn, inventive drama entry — measured in intensity, intimate in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook, with a strong directorial signature.
Heavy, slow-burn, measured drama, inventive in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, cold.
