Full Frontal



I think I may be one of the few people who actually not only like, but love Steven Soderbergh's Full Frontal. Shot with Canon XL-1's and available lighting (mixed with 35mm film) on a budget of no more than $2 million, the film was commonly regarded as poorly shot and lacking a viable narrative thread. Personally, I think its hilarious. Campy, inside humor? Yes. Maybe that's why it makes me laugh. I'm kinda on "the inside."

Throwback Sundays this week remembers Full Frontal - starring Julia Roberts, Blair Underwood, Brad Pitt, Catherine Keener, David Hyde Pierce, and many, many others. Here is a great video essay of the film.
