Time is a human measuring standard for memory. To say you time traveled to 1984 is comparable to saying you went back to 1cm. What does that mean, going back to 1cm? It's Ridiculous! It means nothing! Then on top of this, the attempt is pushed forward by the skill, of a student camera operator who is in cahoots with a central actor with the vanity of a lens junkie. Lets say that most of the scenes here are more for the benefit of the camera operator who is on a mission to attain experience at the cost of the narrative but to the advantage of their subject, who is fodder for their capture. The director has obviously no control of these two rookies and allows them to deviate project from what it might have become; another time travel spiel. I mean Jesus H Christ, just look at the scene of the main character when he is standing on a street in the rain. He is actually looking around at the (real) people who are going about their daily lives to see if they are looking at him act! We've just had a glimpse of Stephen Birge and definitely not Norman! All in all this video footage is a real failure as a movie. Hopefully however, those who participated in this accumulated dreck will have learned something; i.e. Do not attempt to create more!

Norman
(IV) (2019)
Another amateur attempt at trying to make an impossibly ridiculous concept appear possible!
