A woman from Hawaii has tried her own version of the movie “Get Low”. Over the weekend she attended her own funeral.

This scerario is the exact subject of a new movie with Sissy Spacek, Robert Duvall, and Bill Murray. Murray is the Funeral director. The situation in the movie is a little more complex than the Lady From Honolulu.

Snippet:

For years, townsfolk have been terrified of the backwoods recluse known as Felix Bush. People say he’s done all manner of unspeakable things — that he’s killed in cold blood; that he’s in league with the Devil; that he has strange powers — and they avoid him like the plague. Then, one day, Felix rides to town with a shotgun and a wad of cash, saying he wants to buy a funeral

According to Entertainment Daily, Bill Murray has commented on attending your own Funeral, the subject of the new movie  “Get Low”, a movie about attending  your funeral before you die.

The Movie "Get Low" stars Sissy Spacek, Robert Duvall, and Bill Murray

“I like the idea of having your funeral before you’re gone. You can hear all these memoriums about yourself… It would be sort of a baby comedy roast. You can get it over with and then you’d have a party.

“Suffering is the difference between reality and what you think reality is, so that could get your suffering done before your final hour.”via blog.taragana.com

“Get “GET LOW”-Bill Murray Funeral Director is based on a fascinating true story|Your Funeral Guy

The Movie “Get Low” about a Guy who goes to  and invites thousands his own Funeral In 1938 is a movie to look forward to watching.

This video Trailer is based on a fascinating true story:

I didn’t know about the real Felix “Bush” Breazeale until I read the Sony Picture Classics production notes:

“Born into a prominent Southern family, he was nevertheless renown for his wild and offbeat ways. For years, Felix famously dwelled completely alone, refusing all company save for his beloved mule, in the deep, deep woods. Then, suddenly, Felix decided that, before he died, he’d like to know in advance what people were going to say about him after he was gone. Thus was born his wild idea for a ‘living funeral,’ which would soon command national attention. To draw a crowd to this highly irregular memorial, Felix sold lottery tickets offering his valuable plot of land as the prize; and the ploy worked. In the end, it was said that as many as 12,000 ‘mourners’ from at least 14 different states showed up on June 26, 1938 — including a Life Magazine photographer and major newspaper reporters — to pay their respects to Felix…as he watched it all transpire.” For the film, writers Chris Provenzano (Mad Men) and C. Gaby Mitchell (Blood Diamond) imagined Felix’s motivation, the secret he had to share, as well as Murray’s character and a widow (Sissy Spacek) whose “undisclosed past with Felix leads to shocking revelations of an unsolved murder.”via popwatch.ew.com

The value of this movie is that it educates and entertains the public about death, death care funerals and the Funeral Industry.

It also entertains as a comedy a drama and a murder mystery
