It failed anyways. I downloaded it a couple of weeks ago, and it was flipping brilliant. It did hit close to home and watching the Eisenberg character grow and take so much from such a wasted environment was quite a spectacle. <br />You might want to check out the Chumscrubber, Rocket Science, The Wackness and Thumbsucker for movies along the same line. I'd recommend The Wackness first, it's similar in so many ways. <br /><br />The soundtrack was fuckin' A too. It sort of persuaded me to download a whole bunch of 80s albums by the likes of Husker Du and INXS. I'm currently listening to The Velvet Underground and Nico album which is very badass. And did you know the Velvet Underground was managed by Andy Warhol??? Well, there's your trivia fact for the day. <br /><br />-thekakistocracyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
