DICK JOHNSON IS DEAD MOVIE REVIEW
What do you do when you see that your beloved father is getting closer to the end of the party every day? Do you tell him you love him? Do you make sure he is closer to his family and loved ones? Do you review his memories and celebrate the person he was and has become? Or…maybe you think of multiple ways your father could die and arrange to film each danger fraught scenario, making a movie with your father as the dubious, but enthusiastic star. If you’re Kirsten Johnson, you do all this and more, making a quirky, yet oddly beautiful documentary, that celebrates life and love by discussing how it all may end. Join Wright, Jordan, and Mark as they discuss the nicest man you’d ever want to watch perish multiple times.
DIRECTED BY: Kirsten Johnson
STARRING: Kirsten Johnson, Richard “Dick” Johnson
YOUR REVIEWERS
Wright Sulek (Screener Squad, Audio Editor)
Wright hails from the northern suburbs of Dallas, Texas. His passion for filmmaking brought him to Austin to study and make movies. Since then he’s had his hand in acting, writing, and directing his own short films with numerous like-minded film geeks he’s met along his journey. His newest interest has brought him into the podcasting world. He’s co-hosted a few different movie related podcasts such as ‘And Now This’ and ‘The Match Cut’. His current hosting gig is with longtime friend, Eric Samaniego, where they talk shop about the grimiest, trashiest, lost gems of movies on their show, ‘Trash in the Can’. Wright is also hosting reviews with Screener Squad and editing reviews as well.
Jordan Cobb (Screener Squad)
Born with a comic book in one hand, a camera in the other, and in front of the television as WrestleMania played out, Jordan Worth Cobb was thus birthed into this crazy world. A Digital Filmmaking major from the University of Central Arkansas, Jordan has done it all in film from directing, writing, editing, and producing in addition to skills involved in film and TV criticism, journalism, and years of podcasting experience. On any given day, her ADHD riddled brain bounces focus from film to pro wrestling to TV to superheroes to noir to video games to espionage and yes, even to sports. She played little league you know. For more of this eccentric nerd, you can follow her on Twitter here and read her original writings on Deepest Corners of My Notebook.
Mark Prince (Screener Squad)
Mark Prince is a lifelong nerd so old he remembers the first edition of Dungeons and Dragons, the original Star Wars in the theater, and comics that cost a quarter and could be found on racks in the local apothecary. By day, a mere human services worker, by night he emerges to combat boredom, master the vagaries of the B grade television serial, the C grade cinematic release, and to ever assist his fellow man, as well as to master, once and for all, the Shoryuken Dragon Punch with ever stiffening thumbs.
