Rubin & Ed

About This Movie

So, 'Rubin & Ed' is one of those offbeat gems that really gets under your skin in a good way. It’s a quirky buddy road movie, but with a distinctly absurdist twist. The pacing meanders like the Utah desert itself, filled with dry humor and unsettling encounters. Rubin, played by the wonderfully peculiar Howard Hesseman, is this reclusive character whose obsession with burying his cat feels oddly profound. Then there's Ed, portrayed by the ever-charming Crispin Glover, whose desperate charisma brings some wild energy to the mix. The film meanders through themes of loneliness and connection, bolstered by some unique practical effects – like the cat's unorthodox burial. It’s the sort of film that sticks with you, thanks to its strange atmosphere and unconventional performances.
