Based on characters that originally appeared in Oscar/Pulitzer-winner Jules Feiffer's Village Voice comic strip dating back to 1957, Jules wrote the screenplay to "Bernard and Huey" in 1986. It took director Dan Mirvish (Slamdance co-founder) four years to track down the script and work with Feiffer - now 88 and still extremely active as a graphic novelist and playwright - to reinvigorate the project.

Based on characters that originally appeared in Oscar/Pulitzer-winner Jules Feiffer's Village Voice comic strip dating back to 1957, Jules wrote the screenplay to "Bernard and Huey" in 1986. It took director Dan Mirvish (Slamdance co-founder) four years to track down the script and work with Feiffer - now 88 and still extremely active as a graphic novelist and playwright - to reinvigorate the project. Cast includes Oscar-winner Jim Rash, Richard Kind, Nancy Travis, Sasha Alexander, Bellamy Young and Mae Whitman, among others. Shot on Super16 film and Alexa. The film starts with post-collegiate Huey (a roguish ladies man) and Bernard (his nebbishy best friend). We flash forward 25 years and now Bernard is a successful New York bachelor, and Huey arrives on his doorstep looking old and washed up. As the two reconnect, Bernard starts a relationship with Huey's estranged daughter Zelda, an aspiring cartoonist. Huey slowly gets his mojo back and tries to seduce various women in Bernard's life, including on-again-off-again girlfriend Roz and workmate Mona. Zelda treats Bernard like Huey treats women, and Huey and Bernard fall back to their old ways as the ladies' man and the nebbish. But along the way, Huey reunites with his ex-wife, Aggie, his brother Marty and reconnects with Zelda. Bernard finally realizes that he may indeed wind up with a woman old enough to be his wife.
Leave your thoughts about Bernard and Huey.
| Film ThreatBradley GibsonMirvish has stylishly blended the past and present for a comfortable vibe that makes the film fun and cool despite the ridiculous relationship chaos swirling around. |
| ReelViewsJames BerardinelliBernard and Huey is a small pleasure; it’s almost always welcome to watch a character-based film crafted without pretentions. |
| San Francisco ChronicleWalter V. AddiegoAmong the film's chief pleasures are outstanding performances from Rash as the older Bernard and, especially, Koechner as the contemporary Huey. |
| The Victoria AdvocateJoe FriarDavid Koechner and Jim Rash deliver one of the best examples of camaraderie on screen this year. Bernard and Huey are relics in the age of the #MeToo movement. |
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlAs you might hope for a film with a script from the great Jules Feiffer, Dan Mirvish’s Bernard and Huey bristles with anxious, circuitous, hilarious talk. |
| SF WeeklySherilyn ConnellyMost of the running time it's Jim Rash speaking Jules Feiffer's words, which makes 2018 just a little more bearable. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreChatty, self-absorbed, streetwise and sex obsessed, even if he wasn’t drawing his quintessential “New York types,” we’d call Jules Feiffer’s characters “cartoons.” |
| RogerEbert.comMatt Zoller SeitzA lovingly detailed look at two unhappy and unpleasant men. |
| The New York TimesGlenn KennyDevoted Feifferites, not to mention fans of Mr. Rash and Mr. Koechner, who get to flex their muscles nicely here, will be well sated. |
| Pacific Sun (San Rafael, CA)Richard von BusackThis is mid-century comedy masquerading as millennial, and the mask keeps slipping. |
