Like A Stoner Noir Comedy
joy-division-17 September 2005
The Duke of Goo is like an irreverent, marijuana-induced, French-noir comedy (if there were only such a genre), set in present day Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY.

We're taken through a few hours in the life of the self-proclaimed Duke of Goo on his mission to find the perfect jelly-filled donut. A cast of colorful individuals, a chicken, and even a rock band at a house party ultimately help the Duke reach his end goal.

The film is shot in beautifully crisp, high contrast black and white. It is skillfully edited and produced and artfully directed. From viewing the very first frame the aesthetic and overall production quality makes it stand out and pique your interest. I look forward to seeing what Richard Matson can do with a feature-length film.
