Review of Will & Harper: Will Ferrell embarks on a road trip
Description
Josh Greenbaum's Will & Harper chronicles the journey of Will Ferrell, a personal friend and former head writer at Saturday Night Live, as they travel across the country in a car together on Soap2Day Movies. All things considered, this documentary is ideal for the "now," emphasizing the noble intentions of people at a time when compassion and kindness are the most beautiful qualities. The movie opens with a witty gambit that shows Ferrell seated in a chair and looking at the camera, ready for an interview. He is aware of how this arrangement works, and he makes observations on the circumstances and the first establishing shot—a common way for documentaries to start—and that fact. stating out loud that even if the interviewer might act as though it's just B-Roll and not being filmed, they are still making an effort.
