Jefftowne Audience Reviews

Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
jescho13 Making a documentary about a man with down syndrome can not be an easy thing to do. Some people would simply exploit the subject of the film and play it for laughs. Fortunately, this is not the case with JeffTowne. Daniel Kraus never crossed that line of exploitation, while still providing the viewer with laughs naturally through Jeff's unique personality. Jeff seems a lot happier than other people in the movie and relishes in the fact that he is in this film. This is independent film making at its finest. Kraus didn't worry about having a polished piece of work, but instead focused on telling a unique story about a man that had made an impact on his and his friend's and co-worker's lives.
