klware-95311 You should watch this if you were a model and want to remember how much you hated it and it wasn't what you hoped for. I can't believe I sat through half of it.
auraclemmens I'll start by saying this looked like something I could watch passively, but the film was engrossing and surprising. It seemed like a hybrid of genres that I hadn't seen before, sort of a 'soft-satire' and cautionary tale for millennials. I fall into the age bracket this is targeting, I guess, but I really do think this film is relatable no matter what your age is. There are a lot of dark comedic moments, some visual transitions that are unexpected. Overall I found a lot of meaning and heart in the film and can tell a lot of time was put into this. This is very accomplished, especially as a first feature. I do hope to see more in the future from this director.
williamandrewsthefirst I ended up watching this really segmented on Amazon to make the film last longer. You know, when you have something that's really great and want to ration in order to increase your net pleasure? That was what I experienced. Beautiful cinematography, wonderful acting. It felt like a documentary of my experience living in L.A. back in the day. I'm not model material, but neither is the protagonist (as the viewer comes to find out). I never knew what modeling was really like, so I think this does give an accurate portrayal of all the difficulties and lies in the industry, which I really enjoyed. I love revelation films. Bonus: you might laugh a lot. It's really great. Oddly, this film resonated with my male friends, but made my female friends uncomfortable. Why? I don't know. Anyway, I thought this was excellent and would highly recommend to anyone interested in current American independent cinema.
TonyTonyTony777 I don't think I can accurately portray through words what this film meant to me. It was an emotional ride. I really felt for the characters, it was mostly an intense emotional connection that was indescribable. I first heard of this when I was in Chicago on a trip and saw posters on the street. The posters looked really well drawn, and it was like a book: you see a GREAT IMAGE and you want to see more. I couldn't find anything for a long time, maybe two years. I found it on Amazon recently and really enjoyed this. I laughed, cried, and as a man this is rare.I can tell you it's a very unique film I have never seen anything like this before. So, if you are into a film that will make you think about qualities of life, and better appreciate film as an art, you will very likely enjoy this. I don't know if a physical copy is available anywhere, but if there is, I want to buy one.
