Exit Through The Gift Shop

I don't know what to believe about this film. In some ways I think that it was all a hoax but in other ways I think it could be completely truthful. I wasn't aware that Banksy had a history of being a prankster, but with that knowledge it still doesn't sway my opinion. I just think that this was too big of a project for it to all be a joke. They said that they spent years working on it, why would anyone spend so much time on a project if it is only a joke? There is the factor that Banksy is so adamant about keeping his identity a secret, so why would he be okay with someone following him around and filming him? There are just so many questions that will go unanswered I suppose. The documentary was very interesting but it made me angry with how cocky and over-bearing MBW became. He was nothing before he started following around these artists and then he basically became bigger than all the artists he filmed. The only reason he became so big was because of what Banksy said about him, it just ticked me off with how annoying he became because at the beginning I did want to like him. By the end of the film my whole attitude towards him changed.

When Harry Met Sally

 

I feel that When Harry Met Sally is one of the most different romantic comedies that has been made. I mean it definitely does follow a lot of the cliches but it starts out with a change. I mean sure there have been many romantic comedies that have started with the two people disliking each other and then falling madly and deeply in love but this film was not that exact case. I love how the writer made the audience fall in love with Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal as friends. The friendship is what made this film, and it is rare to actually see two people fall into that kind of relationship. Normally there are two characters that already have an established friendship and we are just supposed to believe they have been friends forever. The thing that made me love this movie is that even though they did end up falling in love in the end, their friendship was the main thing about the film. I think that this movie will be a favorite of many to come for many years to come. It has that different factor that will keep it as an artistic movie for a very long time. Not only are there just the two main characters but they also have the testimonials from other couples that keep the film very interesting. It will definitely stay as a favorite for many years.
