exit through the gift shop was great. i like how it changed from a film about a cool underground scene into a film about a complicated, troubled, maybe sad central-figure. banksy's comment at the end summed it all up well: "maybe thierry was a genius all along. maybe he got lucky. maybe it means art is a bit of a joke." or maybe the real street-artists are jealous. or maybe thierry's life-story is the art, like a giant moving installation satirizing culture and fame. also, bonus points for the use of richard hawley's tonight the streets are ours.

p sure ive said this elsewhere but my favorite thing about exit through the gift shop is that i know bansky stans and banksy haters who both love it and find that it re-affirms their view

xp- Sorry, that came out wrong; I wasn't bemoaning a lack of responses after 5 minutes, which would be selfish and moronic, I was just disgusted with my writing, as usual, and making a poor decision to vent that in public, also as usual. I'm starting to think I should invest in a shock collar that goes off every time I type the word "genuinely."

Not a bansky fan but that's a really good film.
― Insane Prince of False Binaries (Gukbe), Friday, 20 June 2014 18:58 (nine years ago) link
i liked the other street artists in the film better than bansky (esp the one who did the andre-the-giant "obey" images). they all seemed to dislike (or be newly dismissive of) thierry at the end.
thierry's explanation for why he loved filming was really at odds with his spending so much time -- away from his family and outside of his career -- filming street artists.
― Daniel, Esq 2, Friday, 20 June 2014 19:54 (nine years ago) link
sorry, "banksy."
wasn't there talk when the movie came out that the whole Mr. Brainfreeze thing was a Banksy prank?

is that the one that was on pbs? if so, it's brilliant. really moving, great footage. even if you don't love hendrix the musician, you'll end up loving hendrix the man.

OMG Stories We Tell is so great. Just destroyed me. And the moment where she reveals that a lot of the Super 8 home movie footage she's used was staged, as part of discussing the subjectivity of "truth", was a genius moment. Been a big fan of Sarah Polley's acting for a long time, thought her own movie Take This Waltz was DREADFUL, but this is a wonderful, wonderful documentary. Don't miss it.

Watched Europa Report last night - it is awesome and awesomely low-budge! Unfortunately it's let down by a really unscary monster. But I'm such a sucker for tension in space

have you seen District 9 or Elysium? He's great in those

Europa Report was great.

Yeah Sharlto Copley is fantastic in District 9 and pretty much the only redeeming factor of Elysium.

the woman toward the end of the movie who played standing up in the flowered dress with the bustle -- she was amazing, so furious and alive. my other favorite guy was the waterfall singer. i forgot to add keywords: teaching, learning, teachers, students
i loved the part where the translator was explaining to the Australian about how teachers should be bridges for their students to climb overthat is philosophically so wonderful imo

and yes seok-chul went before i could ever see him
I know people who swear they can't find anything to watch on Netflix. I tell them I've got a 300 film queue getting longer every week and they look at me like I'm an alien.

ha I've got like seven maybe
― gbx, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 21:44 (nine years ago) link
I mean I guess it's a question of how much you ~respect the queue~
like if you just curate it and diligently watch things as they come to the top then I could see how a v long queue becomes possible
most of the time I'm just in the mood for something I haven't figured out yet, glance at my existing queue, say "nah," and then eg check this thread
