Wow, those pictures from the documentary look really beautiful. I still don't get it, is it a re-enactment (obviously minus the fatal... money shot), or an explanation of the man's life? Either way, congrats to Mudede, whose posts I don't even read because I wasn't reared with that kind of attention span.

The director looks a lot like a DJ I once met at the Eagle. Same guy?

And any chance the movie will make it to Minneapolis? I've found nothing online.

Why should we support the Bothell Times by reading it?

this charles guy, if he works at the stranger - he should have just acted on his sub conscious desires for/to know more about, horse dick

quiet hand job, photos, ask dan, a movie is acting out in a transfer of feelings -but - charles will still be frustrated

rural folks get very expert about animals and sex - it is universal and very OK, even if city people, cool hipster Seattleists, have very narrowly shaped lives - they are by and large the newly uninformed provincials

the way cool types, seldom leave the clique, and cling to white middle class ideas of the rest of the world, not just sexual stuff ---- very boring by and large

give me well educated rural people any and every time

c'mon--what do you expect for a movie about the horse-fucker? Even the hipsters at THINKfilms reacted with horror and giggles at the idea. You don't make a movie about a horse-fucker (or support your friend who's made one) and get patronizing when people focus on, well, the horse fucking. It was a good piece that gave the microphone for the most part to the filmmakers to explain themselves, with minimal prurience.

Like "The Thin Blue Line," Urman argues, "Zoo" uses re-enactments as a visual device to explore "an aspect of human nature.



Ah, shit. Had quite been looking forward to this picture; but, alas, really hate re-enactments. Oh, well.

And, yes, I find The Thin Blue Line to be overrated.
