It's obviously pretty moving, but it sounds so intense.
It's very very difficult to watch. It's well done for sure, but be prepared to experience the whole gamut of painful emotions

I liked the Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia, didn't realize the guys from Jackass produced it

I couldn't really get into The Parking Lot movie. I didn't really care for the characters, like there was nothing specifically they were facing that I could rally behind them for, apart from just everyday frustrations.

Watching The Lottery now

My favorite part about the Parking Lot movie is just how some people would try so hard to get out of the few dollars they owed. Plus the constant rebuilding of the arm that comes down to stop you. IDK maybe I have just had a lot of crappy jobs like that so it home.

I think for a Doc to be successful in your mind you first have to give a crap about the subject.

for example a lot of people love Exit through the Gift Shop, Ithought it was awful and boring.

Yeah those little arguments over a couple of dollars were kind of funny. And frustrating for the attendants I'm sure. Just thought it didn't flow well enough

The Lottery is pretty good, next I'm going to give Louder than a Bomb a shot

Looks awesome how are you going to watch it?

Another awesome DOC and one of my favorite is this:

The Elephant in the Living Room, a Michael Webber Film
