why couldnt they have left out the c*ck tray and Kubrick cloud?


Everything else about this documentary I totally bought- the Indian cans, the Adler typewriter.. I thought some of it was a huuuge stretch though like the minotaur. and obviously as others have pointed out, the d*ck tray was just dumb and Kubrick's face was not in the clouds. other stuff I think was continuity error like the missing chair.

anyways great documentary. it's a movie about death and they allude to the genocide of the American Indian and the Holocaust through subtle hints. that's what I got out of the film

I'm watching this right now. When that guy said that, I immediately came here to see if anybody else called BS. I've come to the conclusion that this documentary is about people over analyzing things. That bit with paper tray and his face airbrushed into the clouds? WOW. It was amazing that he said any of that with out the slightest trace of self awareness, as if any of what he's saying is a perfectly logical conclusion to come to.

Yes. In a way. And that's why I enjoyed it. More importantly, I think it's a documentary about the fact that interpretation shouldn't rely on the creator's intention and that everyone is going to perceive something in their own unique way.
