Featured Video: “The Last Guy To Let You Down” (1999)

Duane awaits his next customer.

It was more than a decade ago that I saw the 11-minute b&w documentary, “The Last Guy to Let You Down,” at Sundance, and it still stands out as an impressively idiosyncratic and unique NYC portrait. Made by British-born photographer and filmmaker Rolf Gibbs, the movie is a melancholy and irreverent profile of a depressed East Village funeral director who’s had more luck dealing with the dead than loving the living. To watch the movie, visit Gibbs’ site and click on “Films” and the title.
