Of course I did. You have just passed my…test? I had simply slipped in ‘News’ to…create a healthy debate on whether or not it’s Latest Documentary News or Latest Documentary Reviews. Clearly it’s reviews.

Ugh. I need to stop the early morning postings from work. Thanks for the correction.

Don’t you mean ‘Latest Documentary Reviews’?

I agree. This wasn’t a review of the film, it was a news item/editorial. A simple post on my blog expressing my thoughts on this project in hopes to create discussion.

Having said that, i’m pleased to inform you that I will continue to review films the old fashioned way, after having seen them. You can check those out to the right of this column under the heading ‘Latest Documentary News’.

Perhaps the movie should be viewed before writing a review.

I thought you meant he was exploiting his subject… Not that the film itself would be an exploitation piece. In that sense, I guess you’re right.

24 is not a kid though. If you meet a 24year old acting like a kid, he’s not a kid but a retard.

’24 year old a kid?’ – yes.

‘It’s not exploitation because the dude obviously agreed to do the movie…’ – It doesn’t matter if the person agreed to do it, it’s the intentions of the film makers and the execution of the film that make it exploitation.

24year old is a kid?

It’s not exploitation because the dude obviously has agreed to do the movie….

I have no idea who this Donahue fellow is, but I can safely say I will never see this movie. How about you use the budget to tell an untold story, instead of this political BS.
