Is that how it is?

[connect20042000 · 8/10 · 14 May 2006]

Saw the film at Raindance in London Last year and it reminded me of a well done mock documentary called Spinal Tap.

Thing is this film is real, everyone in it is real, but you cant quite believe it Very well put together tale of tall tales and double crossing and a slice of cheese.

Is the British film industry anything like this? if it is its not surprised with people like this in the business nothing decent gets made.

Very enjoyable though maybe a little long.

Its due out on DVD so I hear best get a copy for the pure disbelief factor

Hilarious

I saw this film at a private screening last week, as documentaries go this was by far the funniest I have ever seen.

Funniest was Cream a warm up man on the tour, the sub plot surrounding this guy is a masterpiece in character assassination,all done by the character himself.

Hes so bizarre.

This was an attempt to cast a film using the General Public, sadly it failed, but oh so spectacularly, my sympathy went out to the guy who backed it all he really tried to get it going.

Catch it if you can
