About a month ago I got the chance to see the Banksy documentary
Exit Through the Gift Shop. I gotta say, being a creative person, that I loved the film's look into street art and how far its come. I also have to say that i did NOT love the strange twist where the insanely annoying camera man suddenly becomes an acclaimed street artist and then millionaire. Gotta say that part really 'irked' me.
There was a lot of speculation as to whether the twist was real or not. I for one, chose to believe that it was not - which made the movie much more enjoyable to me. But alas, this morning I stumbled across
this article. Damn!
Oh well, at least
real street art is still awesome :)
Did you see the movie? Thoughts?
