Birth is gross? Grow up. They didn’t even show the details. I’d give your review 2 stars based on that.

The birth of his child was to connect how we are destroying the futures of our future generations.

The new issue of Dirt Rag features an interview with Brendt Barbur, who at the moment is possibly still recovering from exhaustion. The Sixth Annual Bicycle Film Festival just concluded in New York City, where the energetic Barbur rallied moviegoers into a frenzy from Wednesday through Sunday. Literally. The Bicycle Film Festival is not about sitting quietly in a theater and contemplating the relative merits of cinematography though by all means you are welcome to. The Bicycle Film Festival is a literal celebration of all things bicycle and so downing a PBR and cheering the bike messengers on screen are not frowned upon – they’re encouraged.

Comment on The Biopic – Pros and (mostly) Cons Thereof by Adam Cuttler

The best Bio-pic I ever saw was from 1974 called General Idi Amin Dada. Oh wait, that was a documentary.

Seriously though, my favorite bio-pic is not about a person at all. Paul Greengrass’ 2006 minute-by-minute account of 9/11 “United 93″.

Definitely, The Pianist is another film that comprises a short period of a person’s life, but gives you a good sense of what he went through and at least a little of he was.

I completely agree with you. For me the best biopics are ones that focus on a short period in a persons life. Biopics that try to tell someones complete story can be fun but they usually fail at being a meaningful film and at giving an accurate portrayal of the individual.
