Nothing Is Lost on Apple TV
In his new documentary “Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost”Ben Stiller leaves humor and acting aside to speak from a much more intimate place: that of a son. The film, available on Apple TV+, is his way of reconnecting with his parents, Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, two beloved figures of humor who also shared a life full of love, work and family chaos.
It is not the typical documentary that reviews dates or achievements. It is more of an open family conversation, a mix of laughter, memories and the occasional tear. Ben and his sister delve into old videos, recordings and diaries to better understand who his parents were beyond the stage. What they find is not only a story of success, but also of effort, complicity and a lot of love.
There are moments when you feel like you are sitting with them at the table, listening to anecdotes that range from the funny to the deeply human. Jerry and Anne weren't perfect, and that's exactly what makes the documentary feel so real: it shows their fights, their doubts, their achievements, and that connection that kept them together for so many years.
After having worked with Apple TV+ on the series SeveranceStiller collaborates with the platform again, but this time with something completely different: a project made from the heart. It is an unadorned tribute, a way to say “thank you” and to show that, even if people leave, memories and love do not disappear.
In Stiller's own words, Making this movie was a way to get to know his parents again.. “I learned new things about them while making it,” he said. And that is exactly what the documentary conveys: the feeling that, even if people leave, nothing is completely lost if we continue telling their stories.
