Honest documentary

I rented Jim Van Bebber's mess on Manson and I found myself pleasantly surprised by this documentary. My night wasn't totally ruined after all. Very honest, it has it's flaws, but pretty interesting to see the behind the scenes of that film festival called Fantasia. The directors of "Gun for Jennifer" were really candid and funny, even with everything that happened to them. Richard Stanley is always too brilliant ...I have to say though that the director of what seems to be a major piece of crap, "Subconcious Cruelty", looks like he needs a major wake up call, or a big kick in the head! I can't believe that someone as talented as Nacho Cerda works with that pseudo director!
