Bernie (2011) ☆☆☆(3/4) : He’s the guy for your funeral
What a nice guy Bernie Tiede is. He is so nice and sincere that you cannot possibly imagine him doing something bad to you. Based on a weird real-life crime story which was quite stranger than fiction, Richard Linklator’s quirky … Continue reading
