A documentary on the rise and stumble of Troy Duffy, the bartender-become-filmmaker who was swept up by Miramax’s Harvey Weinstein to turn his script for The Boondock Saints into a feature film. —IMDb
This is depressing stuff, but it ultimately shows just how cruel Hollywood is and how wrong Duffy was about everything. He had some talent - he had to have done - but he will never, ever learn his lesson. The quotation at the end says it all.
A great documentary that examines what happens when an illiterate and delusional asshole gets a film deal. Essential viewing for aspiring filmmakers.
