The theme to “Dumbstruck“ is as depressing as any Stephen Merritt song I’ve ever heard
FYI:
DUMBSTRUCK is a funny, touching and richly human film about professional ventriloquists. The five featured personalities are a vivid and endearing ensemble attempting to achieve their dreams of making it in a form of entertainment too often disregarded and disrespected, and to the simultaneously exotic and familiar wonderland known as middle America.
