two great documentaries, back to back, starting with the
first in just 20 minutes!

first, at 22:20 GMT as part of Storyville we have "Lost in
La Mancha" (at IMdb), a documentary about Terry
Gilliam's film project "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote" and
especially how it failed to be get made. made by the same
filmmakers that made the documentary "The hamster factor and
other tales of Twelve Monkeys".
excellent - especially to show how insane the making of
films can get.

after that, at 23:50 GMT there is "American Movie" (again,
at IMdb), a film about an amateur redneckish
filmmaker who tries to get his own horrorfilm on foot. very
funny and kind of endearing in a weird way.

just thought some people might like to see these too.

i've been meaning to see lost in la mancha for a long
time... i really ought to rent it.

american movie is kind of sad and exploitative.

I don't think it is exploitative.
