The much-maligned, misunderstood two-dollar bill has set out to erase public misconceptions, by agreeing to star in a self-titled documentary film. “The Two Dollar Bill Documentary” will be the first film of its kind to lift the curtain on what makes the “deuce” unique in our culture. Additionally, questions about why the bill is hoarded, saved, assumed lucky and rarely seen in society will be answered.
South Florida filmmaker John Bennardo is helming the production of this documentary, and believes it’s about time the public came to understand the Two. “Most people don’t even know there IS a two dollar bill,” said Bennardo. “This film will show, not only does the two-dollar bill exist, its role and usage among consumers is far greater than anyone could imagine.” Bennardo has already interviewed superstition experts, historians, numismatists and special interest groups, and has also lined up interviews with other heavyweights like members of the U.S. Treasury. Bennardo will soon be filming the latest print run of two-dollar bills in Fort Worth, Texas and will add this and other stories to the narrative.
Using Kickstarter, Bennardo has created a fundraising campaign for his audience to become part of the film, and share unique stories of their own encounters with the two-dollar bill. Unlike most crowdfunding projects, Bennardo’s offers a chance to have viewers submit stories, pictures and/or a short video to appear in the film. It all adds up to a production sure to entertain and enlighten audiences when it debuts in 2014.
