“Bass Ackwards is a film that as of right now seems to be going under everybodyu0026#39;s radar. I found it by chance while researching released films from this year that I have not yet seen, and man, am I glad I found it. At times it reminded me of Last yearu0026#39;s Wendy and Lucy, but without the added drama I found came along with that film. Other times it reminded me of Sean Pennu0026#39;s Into the Wild as the story follows one man on the road always searching with an open heart.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWhat this film has however, that both these other excellent films do not is a soul that Hollywood rarely touches upon and an acutely fitted soundtrack reminiscent of Neil Youngu0026#39;s score to Dead Man. All these things, plus a foreign language Christopher Walken impression make this little gem of a film shine like a newly unearthed diamond”
