Interesting Trailers and Poster for Documentary THE OTHER FELLOW Which Interviews Real Men Named James Bond
A trailer and Super Bowl ad have been released for the strange documentary The Other Fellow, which dives into the lives of men and boys around the world with the famous name of James Bond. We know him only as the super spy 007, but as it turns out, there are a handful of people who really bear the name of James Bond. And they hear the same tired jokes every single day of their lives.
The film was directed by Australian filmmaker Matthew Bauer in his feature debut. Here’s the synopsis and a note from Bauer:
The documentary is energetic exploration of male identity via the lives, personalities, and adventures of a diverse band of men, real men across the globe all sharing the same name - James Bond. "What would it be like to have the name James Bond?" The director says: "That simple thought has taken me on a figurative and literal journey across the world over a number of years, and has uncovered a myriad fascinating, wholly divergent stories. It now feels like the perfect time and place to return down under, to my own part of the world, to premiere The Other Fellow. In the 60th anniversary year of the James Bond film series and as questions rage about the gender, race, and identity of the next movie 007, suddenly The Other Fellow holds great, fascinating resonance."
Gravitas debuts The Other Fellow in select US theaters and on VOD on February 17th. Check out the trailers and poster below, and let us know what you think.
