What is Brigsby Bear about?
Brigsby Bear Adventures is a children's TV show produced for an audience of one: James. When the show abruptly ends, James's life changes forever, and he sets out to finish the story himself.
Brigsby Bear is a 2017 American comedy-drama film directed by Dave McCary in his feature directorial debut, written by Kevin Costello and Kyle Mooney, and starring Mooney, Claire Danes, Mark Hamill, Greg Kinnear, Andy Samberg, Matt Walsh, and Michaela Watkins. It tells the story of a man abducted as a baby and raised in isolation in a bunker where he obsessed over a children's television program centered on a character named Brigsby Bear; after being rescued by the authorities and realizing that the show had been made for him only by one of his captors, his fascination leads him to finish the storyline himself.
