BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by dmtr on Jan 25, 2010 8:08:52 GMT 1, I don't think so. MBW learned a bunch from Shep and Banksy and the other artists and then on Banksy's suggestion (or so the film says) started making art of his own. I think MBW remains what he is, hit or miss. I thought Banksy was very funny (but i guess you get to be funny when you're calling the shots). I didn't see MBW in attendance, but I did see Morgan Spurlock of Super Size Me Fame (a ron english poster for his doc was seen in the film) and a bunch of nice Banksy fans (maybe the entourage guys were in the back). Very enjoyable evening and I only had to beg for a ticket out in the snow for about an hour.

BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by stenev on Jan 25, 2010 8:10:08 GMT 1, From the reviews and what we know so far I'd have to concur with dmtr that there is more to the story about the 'deal' that resulted in B getting the footage and MBW getting his big show.
From the sounds of the LA Times review I'd say B though 'Life Remote Control' may have damaged his rep or at the very least ruined some of the mystique or carefully crafted image. Consequently he had to help MBW more than he wanted in order to get the footage back and allow it to be re-edited.
Although it seems like B doesn't come across as trying to intentionally sully MBW's name, I wouldn't put it past him to have just edited and produced very cleverly so as to show MBW for what he really is without seeming like he has an axe to grind.
Can't wait to see it even more now!
Looks like the Shep Bonham video was pretty spot on then..

Chatted to Jo Brooks and Simon Durban afterwards. My review coming shortly. I'm currently drinking a bottle if Utah ale named Polygamy Porter, it's strapline being "Why have just one!". Genius.
They used to sell Polygamy Porter t-shirts with the tag line "Take Some Home for the Wives"

is it mint?

BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by Rsyok on Jan 25, 2010 13:29:06 GMT 1, Just read all the other reviews, including The LA Times. There's not too much further to add really. It really is a great film, very funny and at times sad (recounting why MBW got into filming everything in his life). Some things didn't quite add up (as discussed, the extent of banksy's involvement in the MBW show), but I loved every second of it. p.s. I get a credit at the end of the film, so for all you guys who know my real name check it out (it's quite early in the credit sequence, so you don't have to stay until the end if you don't want). p.p.s. The music is great! A credit !! "Best Supporting Fan"- Mr Fragile. Did you spot if Romanywg got a credit for his footage ? Enjoy the rest of your stay I bet they have the full 5 course breakfasts.

BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by Daniel Silk on Jan 25, 2010 14:35:28 GMT 1, I think over the years we have seen lots of Artist try to copy Banksys journey in the Art world, so could we see more Artists over the next year or so release some sort of film? What other Artist do you think would make an interesting story?
