Nevermind, no seriously ... never mind...
At the end of this film the audience is informed that what they just watched was inspired by Kurt Cobain's death, but was completely fictional, as were the characters. Thanks a lot you flippin' idiot! If you had told them that at the beginning of the film, they could have found something else to watch.Some questions will be asked by those who are not aware that this film is an "artsy" act of self-stimulation on the part of Gus Van Sant:Why are they calling him Blake?What the heck is that mumbling, homeless drug-addict doing in that castle?Dear GOD when is this going to be over???My question: Is anything to be gained from invoking this dead man's image for a film that does not require him, and adds nothing to him - that certainly only subtracts from him?Gus's next film will be inspired by the last few hours of Hitler's life. Except it will take place in the Gobi desert, on a Ferris wheel, with seven pre-teen boating enthusiasts dressed as Vikings. The Hitler character will be named Clayton, who will dress up like a woman and mumble commercial jingles in the style of Wagnerian operas. Of course there will be an obligatory, guy-on-guy non sequitur.Now make way for the army of art-house rejects to proclaim Gus Van Sant's genius!
