The movie was designed to confuse, and to leave you wondering if what you saw was indeed real or fake.
I won't divulge any more than that for fear that my insight may cloud other people's opinions about the film.
The film was more of an expose on how our world works these days.
Reality TV is for lack of a better word, Bullshit.
The only reality tv that I consider real entertainment, and REAL all the way around is COPS.
It's also the reason it's the longest running syndicated show on TV- it even pre dates The Simpson's on FOX. ( not that the Simpsons are reality tv)
What I will say is this-
What you see in the film is real. The events and the meetings all happened.
The contestants were for the most part, all real people who wanted to become famous no matter what lengths they had to go to.
It's funny that years ago people became famous for doing great work, whether it was film, tv, or sports. These days people are famous for being "famous"
It's how you can justify the existence of Jon Gosselin or "Speidi".
People truly believe that what's on the other side of the camera's lense will make them happier and fame goes with fortune.
Nothing could be further than the truth.
I can show you many people who are famous and BROKE.
Fame is not a blessing, it's a curse. Perception is reality to everyone. If someone thinks you are rich,. then you are rich.
But with fame, it's much different.
I'll give you an example.
I may have done a ton of press and a movie that has been on Showtime for two years now, but I am far from being a multi millionaire. I may have brokered many sex tapes and made Paris Hilton famous- but was I the cock fucking Paris in the video?
NO.
Was I the owner of the company who put out this video?
NO.
DO people from my alma mater in Mayfield Hts, OH think I am famous?
You bet.
Do I really want the 50 emails a day I get to Facebook, Myspace, and my personal email asking me if I can loan them money or make their tv show.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
If you haven't watched the movie yet- go rent it.
PS it is available @ blockbusteronline.com
