BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by Daniel Silk on Jan 25, 2010 1:41:50 GMT 1, 99.9% of the people in America have absolutely no idea who or what a Banksy is or does
Population of America is around 304,059,724
So that still makes 304,059 who might wanna watch the film ;D

The State Departments numbers are less because they don't count the ones that bribe themselves out of all but a few days in the pokey.

This is the other Sundance film that has me very excited, I'm sure Fragile will agree!
Although Barley wasn't his best work it will be good to see what he has come up with with full control over the project.
Armando Iannucci gave it the thumbs up via twitter with "Yes, Very Yes" which is a good sign in my eyes.

BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by They call me Stephen on Jan 25, 2010 2:54:04 GMT 1, ^I thought Barley was superb...mocked the whole Shoreditch scene before it properly happened and had so many Banksy references within it. Was thinking only yesterday that I need to watch it again!
Know Fragile is going to see the Chris Morris film over in Sundance so am looking forward to hearing his verdict...the reviews for Morris' latest offering have all been very favourable.

I just used to love Blue Jam and the Day Today so much, I guess it was because Morris onscreen (or on the Radio) is comedy Gold.
Very jealous of Fragile, have a great time and make the most of it !!

BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by Grubster on Jan 25, 2010 7:31:54 GMT 1, Banksy isnโt thrilled, concluding that perhaps Guetta isnโt really a filmmaker but โmaybe just someone with mental problems who happened to have a camera.โ Banksy decides to recut the hours and hours of video, while Guetta travels back to Los Angeles and, in an amazing reinvention, transforms himself into an artist named Mr. Brainwash.
โMr. Brainwash is a force of nature. Heโs a phenomenon. And I donโt mean that in a good way,โ Banksy says of his former assistant as he prepares for his first show in Los Angeles.
โGift Shopโ becomes less of a movie about Banksy, his work and his complicated relationship with Guetta and more a study of how we see and appraise art โ either through some subjective aesthetic test or economic valuation. Do artists need to earn their fame, or is fame simply imposed upon them through some random algorithm?
seems like he is a bit sour IMO

BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by cadeallaw on Jan 25, 2010 7:35:11 GMT 1, I dont' necessarily think that it was a 'laugh' at him and more of an objective view on the whole situation, leaving it up to the movie goer to form their own opinion. MBW didn't 'pay his dues' like other artists, however became successful in an unorthodox manner: "Is Mr. Brainwashโs work derivative and contrived, and whoโs to say if it is?"
I look at it as a positive personally

BANKSY Film "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by dmtr on Jan 25, 2010 7:47:26 GMT 1, Just got back from the premier. It was funny, Banksy came across as a badass, MBW came across poorly, but I didn't Banksy maliciously sought out to hurt him. The footage was spectacular, the message...well...i guess the message was sort of "hype is bad", but it was a nice story about MBW's journey to where he is now. I don;t think it was all honest; I don't think Banksy was entirely truthful about his role in the MBW LA show or his intentions. Banksy says he sent MBW back to america to do a small art show and that Mr Brainwash "left all the footage with him when he left"....and I don't think thats how it went down (but i guess when you are the director you get to tell your own version of history). , I think all of the artists liked MBW and enjoyed his help and documentation of their work, but the film makes it clear the MBW wasn't really a filmmaker. Sorry for the rambling. I liked the film a lot, going back to see it again on Wednesday.
