Description

In second installment of our "Catching Up On Movies About Movies" month, Trevor has Kyle watch one of his favorite documentaries of all time, Chris Smith's intimate portrait of a struggling filmmaker, American Movie (1999)!

Following the exploits of wannabe filmmaker Mark Borchardt, the film is an intimate portrait of a frustrated and struggling artist and his efforts to eke out a living, ply his craft, and grapple with his own personal demons.

Shot between 1995 and 1997, the film is a precious time capsule of the human condition in middle America.

Serious question: Is peppermint schnapps with Sprite a good drink?
