So, Beardo is this fascinating dive into Rasputin’s life, playing with the surreal and the absurd. The mix of drama and music really does a number on you, with Craig's writing feeling both sharp and introspective. You’ve got these haunting melodies from Malloy, which add layers to the already complex narrative. The pacing ebbs and flows, keeping you on your toes as you navigate through Rasputin's contradictions—healer or hedonist? The performances are intriguing, adding to the mystique of Rasputin’s character, and there’s this raw energy about it that feels both fresh and timeless. It’s distinctive in its approach, a real blend of theatricality and musicality that isn’t often seen.
Beardo has seen limited releases, making it a bit of a gem for collectors. There's not much in terms of home video formats—mostly some festival screenings and a few indie runs. The scarcity adds to its allure among those interested in unique takes on historical figures, and the collaborations behind it, like Craig and Malloy, definitely pique collector curiosity. It’s the kind of piece that not only stands out for its content but also for its enigmatic presentation and thematic depth.
