Notes for Jerome (1978)

Notes for Jerome (1978). 45m

“Shot almost entirely on location this is a seemingly surreal tale of a man who infuriates people around him with his constant talking. It makes difficult viewing at times because the reactions of his u0026quot;victimsu0026quot; seem very real and you wonder whether they even knew they were being filmed. It certainly pulls an emotional punch, and doesnu0026#39;t make for easy viewing. I walked away in a slight state of shock feeling as if I might have been watching a disaster happening in slow motion. A slightly entertaining tale at some points, especially when Jerome gets over-excited, but far too easy to parody. Best avoided.”
