the narration style for this documentary is what keeps me interested, it’s like a stranger you’ve just met who’s telling you everyone’s darkest secrets. it’s the exploration of insanities that go into micro budget filmmaking, hardly ever showcasing the fun of making a film. instead it showcases the personality clashes that reflect onto a film’s completion. i’ve been a huge fan of flawed cinema especially when it seems like production would be fun but this carries on the nightmarish aspects of it. but that’s not the reason why i didn’t like this documentary even though there are a lot of great stuff in it.
we’re following a bunch of racist and creepy assholes the entire time and i can’t get myself to enjoy being around them or even supporting their work. despite them being grown adults, they act like under-developed teenagers even the director. making racist and homophobic remarks and laughing it off while you’re in a crowd of white people that are comfortable with hearing that stuff. and they normalize seducing an 18 year old girl (when they’re middle aged) and i don’t care if she’s okay with it because why the fuck is it even a huge deal in this doc. i can see why the filming didn’t work out as much, there’s hardly any passion and these losers have big egos.
