A biographical documentary about a decades-long friendship
Docu, dir.: Alex Wroten, 2021, 83min, OV, eng. subtitles
āAlex Wrotenās unlikely 2021 film (now on Blu-ray) about the obscure duo with a cult following travels along a similar route of rise/fall/resurgence seen in other music films, but the subjects and their surrounding cast of characters (including fans and friends) are so wonderfully off the wall that they give the story a unique charm.ā The Wire, 458

"Iāve been captivated by Renaldo & The Loafās strange music since Halloween Night 2003, when some friends popped in a DVD and showed me Ralph Recordsā promo film for 'Songs for Swinging Larvaeā. Iām excited and honored to be able to pass that captivation on to others through our film, which I would say is a āfeel-good movie about feel-weird musicians." -
Alex Wroten, Director
"Our story has never been told in this way before, and we are excited for it to be revealed. Has it proved cathartic? Possibly!" - Brian Poole and David Janssen, aka Renaldo & the Loaf
