Thunder Road GFT
31 May – 6 June, 2019
Writer-director-actor Jim Cummings expands his award-winning short into a darkly comic exploration of a cop on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Struggling to control a flood of raw emotions, Jim Arnaud (Cummings) prepares to speak the eulogy at his mother’s funeral and follow it with her favourite Springsteen song. Nothing goes according to plan at an event that lays bare his grief, anger and despair. What follows ricochets between heartbreak and hilarity, finding its humanity in committed performances from Cummings and Kendal Farr as his daughter Crystal. GFF19
