Australian Kenny Smyth has a philosophical outlook and an upbeat approach to his life and work, which involves installing portaloos for public events for the company Splashdown. Clayton Jacobson's film follows him over a period of several months as he deals with his job, his cantankerous father, his hostile ex-wife and a burgeoning romance with an air hostess he meets on a business trip to Nashville. Although successfully sold as the real deal on its first release, Kenny is actually a comedy mockumentary in the This is Spinal Tap mould and is a joy from start to finish, a surprisingly touching portrait of a man and his work, with a winning performance by Shane Jacobson as Kenny. |
