Ventriloquists are the red-headed stepchildren of the entertainment world. Unless you’re Terry Fator and signed a $100 million contract with a Vegas casino, chances are people look at you like you’re crazy when they find out you spend your time talking without moving your lips with your hand up the backside of a wooden doll. This fascinating documentary, which focuses on five ventriloquists including Fator before and after he became rich and famous, will help change the way you think about ventriloquists. Along with giving you some great insight into what it takes to do it right — there’s a lot more to it than talking through a clenched jaw — it’s an enlightened look at why ventriloquism can be a unique form of art, too.
