Tribeca 2022: ‘Jerry and Marge Go Large’ Premieres at Tribeca

by Ashlee Dell’Arciprete June 21, 2022
written by Ashlee Dell’Arciprete

 

One of the most kindhearted true tales to come out of the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival is the true story of Jerry and Marge Go Large.

Led by Bryan Cranston and Anette Benning as none other than Jerry and Marge Selbee, respectively. After being forced to retire from his decade-long factory job, Jerry figured out a legal loophole in the lottery system that grabs his attention as he and Marge try and win all the marbles. A statistic lover’s dream, the Winfall machines led Jerry to discover the mathematical flaw in the game that meant guaranteed winnings if enough tickets were bought. And boy did Jerry purchase thousands – quite literally.

Jerry soon realizes there’s a lot more where that came from, and his wife Marge supports him throughout and soon joins in on the fun along with their friends in town. At the same time, a student at Harvard University finds out and join in on Jerry and Marge’s game, but you’ll have to watch it to find out who went large.

The film was directed by David Frankel (Marley & Me, The Devil Wears Prada) and successfully delivered another feel-good drama that leaves any viewer with a smile throughout the course of the film. Bryan Cranston and Annette Benning share undeniable chemistry. Rainn Wilson (The Office) also stands out as the convenience store employee who appears to be playing a merge of Dwight Schrute and himself in the film.

We were at the Tribeca Film Festival Premiere of the film where we talked with Larry Wilmore who stars as Jerry’s accountant. Catch the story here! 

Jerry and Marge Go Large is Now Streaming on Paramount+!

On the Scene: ‘Jerry and Marge Go Large’ Tribeca Premiere

by Dano Nissen June 20, 2022
written by Dano Nissen

According to Larry Wilmore, accountants are indeed funny. 

Wilmore plays the accountant to the eponymous Jerry Selbee in the Bryan Cranston and Annette Benning film “Jerry and Marge Go Large.” It’s based off a Huffington Post feature about a real life retiree who figures out a way to turn his local lottery odds in his favor.

“This story is about this guy that beat this thing with math,” Wilmore told The Knockturnal on the Tribeca Film Festival red carpet. “It’s a nerds winning type of story.”

When asked how he brought levity to a putatively humorless occupation, he pushed back, citing a counter example. “Jack Lemmon played [an accountant] in the ‘Apartment’ and he was kinda funny,” he said. “I was just working off of [Cranston and Benning]. The part was written funny. I had a lot of funny lines. It’s me just really reacting to Jerry being ridiculous with the whole lottery thing.”

More than just a funny movie, Wilmore characterizes the story as inspiring — especially during cynical times. “When I read the script a year ago it was in the drudgery of the pandemic. PTSD was already in full effect,” he said. “He didn’t just do it for himself. He didn’t care about the money. He included the whole town in it and everyone got to share. That was so inspiring to somebody not thinking about themselves.”
