I was surfing through movies on the twenty movie channels I have last night and this one caught my eye. I info'd it and got the description "A documentarian follows a chubby doorman through his marriage with a mail-order bride." I had no idea that it was going to be a mockumentary and as the movie progressed I became more and more confused. I was shocked when it was revealed that Andrew was sleeping with her but in a very amusing "what the heck's going on" sort of way. I really thought that this was just a very messed up documentary. I slowly caught on that it was fake but it didn't stop my enjoyment of the film. The end is absolutely hilarious, I couldn't stop from laughing at loud by myself at the sheer patheticness of the characters. I'm going to have to go back and watch it a second time, just to appreciate the lines in there that I clearly missed before.
My only advice for showing this to friends is that you don't tell them anything other than it's a very interesting documentary. It can't be nearly as funny already knowing it's fake.
