NegativeU.S News

Ben Stiller's archival documentary 'Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost' has premiered at the New York Film Festival 2025, but it struggles to deliver a satisfying narrative. Critics note that the film feels more like a series of climactic montages rather than a cohesive story, leaving viewers wanting more emotional depth. This matters because it highlights the challenges filmmakers face in balancing archival footage with storytelling, and it raises questions about how we connect with the legacies of comedic duos.
