Uniqueness that stands out among the many A24 works



A24 produces and distributes unique films and is now the focus of many movie fans. The film ``The Death of Dick Long''” is a work produced by A24 that stunned the audience with its content that was so ``so unique'' that other works felt like common sense. What's more, it's amazing that it's based on an actual incident.


A rural town in Alabama, in the southern United States. Three middle-aged men gather in a garage as usual to play instruments, drink beer, play with fireworks, and have fun as "Pink Freud," a play on the name of a famous band. I'm having fun. Some of the characters are married and have children, but they look like juvenile delinquents who never grew up and simply grew older. This is the controversial work ``The Death of Dick Long''” This is the introduction.


``The Death of Dick Long” Preview


Then something unexpected happens. One of them, Richard Long, falls into a coma due to an incident. By the way, his nickname is Dick. Dick is a slang word for male genitalia, and long means long. Sieg and Earl, who are supposed to be his companions, leave the unconscious man in front of the hospital, calling him by a nickname like a porn actor, and they run away.


Why was Dick Long left in front of the hospital entrance without an ambulance being called? This truth is the terrifying core of this film, but if you reveal it, audiences who haven't seen it will be deprived of much of the fun. Here, I would like to talk about the content of the work while keeping the shocking truth a secret.
