WINNEBAGO MAN: Jack Rebney Tribute Screening

Directed by Ben Steinbauer

USA, 2010, 1h 25min, DCP

Special Event

There are no current or future screenings planned for this film.

Type “The Angriest Man in the World” into any search engine, and one name appears — Jack Rebney, a.k.a. “The Winnebago Man” — an ’80s RV salesman, whose hilarious, profanity-strewn, on-the-job meltdown was captured on video and passed around on VHS tapes, before exploding into an Internet phenomenon seen by millions. When filmmaker Ben Steinbauer sets out on the seemingly impossible task of tracking down Rebney, who disappeared 20 years before, he finds Rebney living alone on a mountain top, as sharp-tongued as ever, but more intelligent and loveable than anyone could have imagined. WINNEBAGO MAN is an outrageously funny look at viral culture and an unexpectedly moving tale of one man’s response to unintended celebrity.

We will be joined by director Ben Steinbauer and other members of the team behind the legendary 2010 doc WINNEBAGO MAN to pay tribute to the recently departed subject of the film, Jack Rebney. This will be an event to remember as the crew – and very special guest, Jack’s best friend Keith Gordon –  share stories of Rebney, a sweet, caring man who happened to be the best wielder of curse words on the whole planet.
