“Pellington’s boldest and most audacious film to date, an unclassifiable dance movie that plays like a cross between Wim Wenders’ Pina and Saw…Pellington moves beyond the limitations of narrative to get at something primal and raw—but also ultimately transcendent and life affirming—that perfectly conveys the transformative effects of grief and loss.”
– Jim Hemphill, Filmmaker Magazine
“Pellington’s continuing rumination on the progress of grief: now a wildfire, now a slow, creeping cancer, always a constant companion…the answers to The Severing are written in flesh and bone.”
– Walter Chaw, Film Freak Central

In 1997, Mark Pellington made his feature directorial debut with “Going All the Way,” based on Dan Wakefield’s novel of the same name. Telling the story of two Korean War veterans returning to their hometown of Indianapolis in the 1950s, the film featured an impressive cast of then-unknowns — Ben Affleck, Jeremy Davies, Rachel Weisz, Rose McGowan, and Nick Offerman among them. The film screened at Sundance, got solid reviews and a distribution deal… and then disappeared for 25 years. Pellington, while proud of the film, never felt like he quite captured what he had loved about Wakefield’s book, and the various edits the movie went through — from a three-hour-plus rough cut to the 112-minute Sundance version to the 97-minute movie that was ultimately released in theaters — left him feeling like he had taken the guts out of the story.

Dan Berger, president of Oscilloscope, said, “Though shot 25 years ago, ‘Going All the Way’ is as fresh, revelatory, and ahead of its time today as it would have been then. I couldn’t be more thrilled that O-Scope will be able to reintroduce this important gem of independent cinema in a way no one has ever experienced before and to collaborate closely with the entire, impassioned filmmaking team to do so.”
