Audience Member Always wondered who played that foot in your favourite scene of your favourite movie... now you can meet the face of that foot. Uniquely intriguing, if tragic, a documentary you won't stop watching, like that time you watched a squirrel eat a mouse head first. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Watching this film felt like going to work! Not a bad documentary, but it's not great. Some of the characters are really fascinating but most not so much, but in any case there's a huge balance issue. Knowing what I know about these people now, having a starring role in this film has probably driven them to elated insanity. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This is an Interesting doc. Full of true to life characters. This doc is heartbreaking on two levels. Firstly because of the hard lives the characters are choosing to live. But even sadder was the fact the filmmakers were making fun of these characters. In subtle but mean ways that I'm sure during film making they didn't realize they were being made fun of. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member When i first started watching this i thought "it seems like they're a just bunch of losers"...and it turned out...they really are. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Hollywood is quite an interesting place. It sells this crazy idea that anyone can become a star and people will keep at that despite everything showing that it is just not going to happen. This film captures this whole song and dance on film, but you have to respect their drive. They love what they do and they absolutely bring a layer of realism to films, but holy crap do they go through a lot for a chance to be on screen for a few seconds. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Great documentary.I never paid attention to extras in movies until after watching this film & it also makes me want to go out & be an extra myself Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
