Saw this paired with SILVER BULLETS. Works as a document of the director's filmmaking approach (even if fictionalized). Rough standalone piece.

This one is really tough to pin down. I can say that I definitely liked it quite a bit, but its a little weird. Its pretty "experimenty" in some areas and I wonder if you really have to know more of Swanberg's work to understand the experiement. In any case, I do know it and it worked for me pretty well.
