Bastard

About This Movie

So, 'Bastard' is a curious little comedy from 2015, directed by someone we don’t really know, which adds a layer of mystery. The film follows George Harmon, a comedian whose big day takes an unexpected turn when he uncovers some surprising news right before his first special. The tone is light but there’s a sense of underlying chaos, fitting for a comedy about the unpredictability of showbiz. The pacing feels like a rollercoaster - some laughs come quick and some hit with a delay, kind of like real stand-up. The performances are genuine, bringing that awkward charm you might find in indie comedies. It’s not flashy, but it has this raw energy that sets it apart from more polished entries in the genre.
