The Clapper
Directed by Dito Montiel1h 29m2018
Eddie Krumble works as a paid audience member for infomercials and experiences a whirlwind of overnight fame after a late-night talk show host publicizes his frequent infomercial appearances.
Our read: The Clapper (2018) reads as a warm, steady, grounded comedy entry — gentle in intensity, intimate in scope, measured in temperature, ambivalent in outlook.
Warm, steady, gentle comedy, grounded in texture. Ambivalent, intimate, measured.
