Personally I really like the film I believe that what the film is about is basically going after whatever moves you.
I am almost certain that the way I see Mr. Brain Wash is not the way most of the people see him. While it's true that by the end of the film we are not sure if he is a real artist or not, at the same time we can understand the "secret" of his overnight success. Thierry Guetta is a daredevil, he is fearless, he needs a motivation and freedom at the same time as he said in the documentary. At the begging of the movie I see him as a very curious guy but very smart as well. You can say that he wasn't very honest from the beggining by selling fake "designer" clothes at thousand dollars but at the same time I believe he was thinking...let's try this, and who am I to say that's not designer...after all what means designer it's nothing else thab unique clothes...and he was right by categorizing those clothes as Designer because it was true- they were unique. Throughout the movie I see him as a very focused person first with his clothing store - selling designer. Then when he got his camera - religiously filming every minute and even sometimes becoming a paparazzi. I believe that when he started filming his cousin Space Invader he was attracted to his lifestyle... so different than his. After all he was just a father with a family and his family movies. As he said in the interview he felt the rush, the adrenaline of the moment, and he had to film that with the same passion-almost obssesion just like everything else. As he started meeting more and more artists I think that he started to feel accepted. He started to admired this guys who were breaking the law, painting walls, running from the police. What he started as just...
... middle of paper ...
...hen been interviewed: he doesn't know how to stop - just like with filming.
So I really like that his first show was a success selling almost a million. I believe nobody really believe that was going to be the outcome... For some reason everyone was waiting for a failure. So it was a joke how a overnight artist - like he said - was so successful. It was a joke that a guy who was just a shadow of the street art artists became this well known and demanded artist up to the point that his artwork was all around the world. I never see Thierry as a advantageous person because yes he made a million but also he gave out 300 art pieces to the first people showing to his expo, and I see that as he been grateful to them by trusting him even just for curiosity but they showed up, and that mean the world to Thierry.

Often, collectors rely on art dealers when deciding whether an art work is 'good or not'. They are not very knowledgeable about how valuable a specific art work is. Valuation of an art work is made by some criterias .How much are the similar art works worth? Are there any artworks that can be bought or is this the final chance to have a Picasso in your home? Does any museum show interest such as MoMA? Or was that artwork owned by Charles Saatchi? Is it going to be auctioned at Sotheby's? All answers of these such questions helps determining the value of an art work. The network of the actors of art worlds should be analyzed for example if we were to study the phenomenon of skyrocketed prices of art works. However, where Becker's approach is not enough is that he believes there are different art worlds. Becker states, 'Art worlds typically have intimate and extensive relations with the worlds from which they try to distinguish themselves.' Even though they share resources, exchange ideas and they are part of a larger social organization, not everything is shared and this is one of the main reasons that generates a curious economics phenomenon of the art markets. We should try to find a balance between researching every aspect of the complex cooperative network of art creation and limiting the research to a specific
The movie teaches us to look beyond the cover and into who someone is as a person. We also learn that sometimes contact with people makes us reconsider our judgement towards them, to find out the real person underneath.
This shows that this is him and who he really is. People following his beliefs because he treated people equally and judged people equally. This is a big difference from him and other hip-hop artists.
makes a man’s core, expands the mind, and creates a sense of peace and that’s what this film is
While most stereotypical street artists wouldn’t go all out for their first show, he did. Mr. Brainwash rented out a 15,000 square foot warehouse filled with his art. He titled the show “Life is Beautiful.” His first art show was nothing less than a success, with 4,000 people wandering the halls lined by the art that he created, a dream come true for every street artist. Theirry Guetta was a beautiful example of how seeing a simple piece of graffiti can influence a person and how they live their lives.
Exit Through the Gift Shop is a documentary style film made by the infamous street artist Banksy. He makes this film to tell the story of Thierry Guetta. Thierry is a French man who owns a clothing store in Los Angeles. He also likes to film everything. His cousin is the famous street artist Space Invader, so Thierry followed him around and filmed him doing his work. As Thierry continued to do this, he begins to meet more and more street artists. The footage of this documentary shows Thierry following famous people like Shepard Fairy and others. It gives insight into why and how they produce art in this way.
This movie was inspiring and encouraging to anyone who is struggling with something. Overcoming his controversies in life became the main point of the movie. Knowing that this movie was based upon a true story inspires the people even more.
If I meet the wrong person or being forced to do something, I should reject and leave immediately. This movie brings a lot of thinking about sexuality, sexual orientation and gender issues, and it does influence audiences in many different
In my own opinion I think this film is great. I think this because it
This film really focuses on the characters. Their thoughts, anger, distress, and mistakes become part of your mistakes. This deals with a father’s s priority and how he will achieve that priority by using unethical ways like torturing an innocent man. Bringing up child abduction and torture are
...movie that I fell in love with. But most of all I love how the story line is a great overlap into the cinematically engaging movie. There is a great use of camera, timing, shots and story line that are portrayed in this movie without being too overwhelming. This allows the audience to relax during the movie and just take in the scenes as a story from reality. To this day, and even still doing this paper I still come to find different aspects of the movie that I missed the previous times I have watched it.
To conclude, I think this movie is a good example to show how a homeless person lived and how he survived his life from being a homeless. Throughout all his life he showed what can determination do even though there are obstacles in the way. Doing is best paid off his hardships. So from dreaming big, be determined on what you're trying to do, and be responsible on things will make you succeed in the future.
There are many positive things and negative things about the movie and the story. In the movie
I like the film very much. I think its one of the best films I’ve seen ever. The comedy in the film is just my humour, and the action was okay.
The movie is relaxing to watch thanks to the scenery, but it’s slow and a bit boring. The film is over two hours long (2:20 or so) and it takes a while to get anywhere. This is disturbing because the plot didn’t seem to have as much importance as the camera angles, framing shots or dialogue. These aesthetics had more importance than in most other movies. It also had an unusual way of telling the story - done mainly by showing images to transfer the main message.
