MCT:May 13, 2008My second favorite film ever. You can try your entire life to write dialogue this hilarious, but it could only come from a group of real people in real life.

Wonderful stuff.
I saw this one at round about the same time as Adaptation (same week I think) and again it floored me. The visits to his uncle and trips out with his uncle are very memorable...and Marks determination to get it done, combined with being depressed and wanting to drink the night away...and having a very good honest friend by his side are all things I could relate to.
Making a film is just such a huge undertaking, and its all captured here so well. But not only that, we get to see people in their current situation here too, small bits of their private lives, even if its just a glimpse...it fascinated me. -

Brilliant documentary gives an insight into independent film making at its most honest and weird way.

Ok, thanks to my sisters suggestion I watched this movie. It's just brilliant. You could NOT cast these guys if you tried. But it's genuine and funny. I feel a bit bad laughing at the people, but they are just so interesting. Mark Borchardt's love for making films really shows though. Which makes him really likeable. His friend Mike though was my favorite part of the movie. He's great.

MCT:April 2, 2008One of the most entertaining, inspiring and engaging documentaries I've ever seen. The people featured in the film (especially Mark) are hilarious, bizarre, depressing and deeply flawed, but they have so much passion for what they are doing that you can't help but to root them on and wait with baited breath as they struggle to complete their movie. This is a must for any filmmaker, lover of film or lover of being entertained.
