Viewing Notes
Every time I thought I figured out what this movie was trying to say, something crazier than the last crazy thing that happened happened. If you thought Timothy Carey’s acting style was flamboyant, crazy and riveting, wait until you see how he shoots and edits a movie. This is very obviously a deeply personal project for Carey, so much so as to be nigh-impenetrable but it never lacks for entertainment value. It was a very rare treat to see this on the big screen and a room full of lost souls was completely blown away.
