Review of Fall Guy (1982) by Hamad S — 25 Jan 2010
A dark-humored meditation on the state of the film industry in 1980s Japan, overt self-abuse and sacrifice, manipulation and loyalty, and vigorous theatrics. As if that was not enough, it is of course, also formated as a movie-within-a-movie-within-a-theater show, a la Fellini's 8 1/2.
Although its highly energetic style is annoying, it kind of grows on you (creepily) by the end of the effort (and yes, it was quite an effort to watch it).
