My Old School

About This Movie

So, 'My Old School' is this really interesting blend of animation and documentary that dives into the bizarre story of Brandon Lee at Bearsden Academy in the early '90s. The pacing is pretty unique, weaving between interviews and animated sequences that bring the surreal elements of his story to life. You get this feel for the odd atmosphere of school life, and the social dynamics are spot on, almost like a peculiar time capsule. The use of animation here is clever, adding layers to the narrative that a typical doc might miss. And the performances, especially from the animated characters, capture the essence of the real people involved in a way that’s strikingly memorable. It’s distinct because it’s not just a retelling; it’s like reliving the craziness through a creative lens.

Unique blend of animation and documentary styles. · Offers a deep dive into the social landscape of the '90s. · Interesting take on nostalgia and the absurdity of school life.
