The Do-Deca-Pentathlon
2012. Written and directed by Jay Duplass and Mark Duplass, starring Mark Kelly and Steve Zissis
I saw this DIY film by the Duplass Brothers (Cyrus, Jeff Who Lives at Home, The Puffy Chair) last year at SXSW and immediately fell in love with their poignantly hilarious storytelling style. The story of two estranged brothers who restage a childhood athletic competition, Do-Deca inspired a Duplass Netflix spree and is definitely worth a repeat viewing. Yes, the Mark Duplass who co-directs this film is the same Mark Duplass who stars in Safety Not Guaranteed and Your Sister’s Sister.
