Released in 2006, The Ralph Handel Story is a notable film directed by Josh Safdie, running about 15 minutes.
What it’s about. Benny Safdie’s deadpan spoof of stand-up comedy and staged cinéma verité verges on performance art. His Ralph Handel is a humorless white-collar worker who unaccountably spends his nights working the open mic circuit. Safdie bravely committed himself to actual nightclubs for several of these abysmal routines, lending a curious note of authenticity to the counterfeit documentary.
Who’s in it. The Ralph Handel Story stars Benny Safdie as Ralph Handel, Josh Safdie and Peter Rand.
