So bad it becomes good

This movie is really special. I wonder how they are able to play so bad that it actually becomes good. One of the most controversial movies I've ever seen, but I liked it a lot. The settings and atmosphere are good. The script is worthless, but that just fits the movie. Funny how a movie trying to get bad, becomes rather amusingly interesting. I watched it as being a parody, sublimely exposing the greed for famousness, the nonsense of meaningless artistic views just to deliver a movie. In doing so, they succeeded in exposing this. The players all have a dream they cling to, but nothing to fill it up with, this results in self-pity.. I've seen that before :) Quote: "It's hard work,a little bit of talent.. and hard work".
