fucked up film: storytelling (2001)


todd solondz. sometimes i wonder what goes through your mind all day long. cause your movies always leave me thinking, "what the fuck did i just watch?". storytelling is a movie in two parts. the first part is called "fiction" that shows a college teenager dating named vi dating a boy named marcus, (telly from kids) who has cerebral palsy. both attend a creative writing class with a black professor mr. scott. mr. scott is the biggest douchebag ever. he makes fun of marcus' story saying it was a "piece of shit". then out of nowhere, vi screws mr. scott and calls him a nigger then she writes a story about it for class.

the second part is called "nonfiction". toby, a loser documentary guy wants to do a film about high school teenagers. his focus, scooby, a pot smoking bisexual teenager who hates his parents and is not willing to go to college. at first toby makes it seem like hes making a respectful documentary about scooby but in the end he makes a mockery out of him and scooby sneaks into the early film screening hearing the audience laugh at him on screen.

there is more into the nonfiction story with scooby's parents but its not really necessary for me to get more into detail. overall i though storytelling was alright but the ending turned me off.

FUCKED UP RATING: 4 OUT OF 10
OVERALL: 5.5 OUT OF 10
