Get Gun Practice With ‘Gentlemen Broncos’

I’ve only been following Gentlemen Broncos from afar, and by that I mean it was on my “Sam Rockwell is in that so I’ll see it sometime” list. Until today, I’m ashamed to say I didn’t even know what it was about, or that it also features the sexy Kiwi known as Jemaine Clement. But Gordon and the Whale landed an exclusive behind-the-scenes video from Broncos, and it’s so random and funny that I’m now going to obsess about this film for the rest of October. Especially because of Clement. I’m not over the loss of Flight of the Conchords just yet.

If you’re as behind as I am, here’s the official synopsis: “Benjamin, home-schooled by his eccentric mother, is a lovable loner whose passion for writing leads him on an offbeat and hilarious journey as his story gets ripped off by the legendary novelist Ronald Chevalier and then is adapted into a disastrous movie by the small town’s most prolific homespun filmmaker.” Sounds good, doesn’t it?

This is video #7, and videos 1 through 6 are available on the film’s official site. I don’t know if they’re all this funny, but I do know that you will find no better way to spend five minutes today. Watching Rockwell do anything is a blast, but toss in a ridiculous wig and a dubious activity known as “ray gun practice,” and you can thank your lucky stars that the Internet was invented so we could while away our time with such footage. Gentlemen Broncos hits theaters on October 30. Those lucky punks going to Fantastic Fest this year will see it sooner. The video is below the jump. Be sure to visit Gordon and the Whale and say something nice, because they’re good people.
