From Festival to Fascism: Cannes 2017

About This Movie

So, this one... it's a quirky dive into the Cannes Film Festival scene of 2017 through the lens of Troma and Lloyd Kaufman. It’s both a comedy and a documentary, which is a strange mix, but it actually works. You get this raw, unfiltered look at how the festival operates, mixed with Troma's signature absurdity. The pacing feels like a chaotic journey, matching the vibe of Cannes itself. Practical effects pop up here and there, adding to the charm. Performances are over the top, typical of Kaufman’s style. What’s really fascinating is how it critiques the film industry while being funny. You can really feel the passion and frustration of those involved, making it a unique commentary on festival culture.
