Film Overview
From Dan Perlman (Flatbush Misdemeanors), this hilarious documentary short follows a deeply unqualified man who’s inexplicably hired as a Michael Buble impersonator for a rich stranger’s party. Despite no resemblance, no singing ability, and just one week to prepare, he gives it everything he’s got. Praised as "spectacular" in The New York Times, Being Bublé is a true story that makes no sense.
