Review of The Windmill Movie (2009) by Heather M — 11 Oct 2008
I have to say that I really wanted to like this movie more than I did.
The problem is, that watching Rogers try to figure out his own life story is boring. Knowing that his student (Olch) went through the footage and made his own version...which we were watching is interesting.
It is only truly compelling when Susan (Rogers wife) is involved.
At the Q&A for the film at the New York Film Festival, she stated that she didn't contribute as much to the film as Olch would've liked.
I think the audience might have liked it more as well.
The reason Rogers couldn't make the material he had shot work is because it doesn't.
