Art School Confidential


IMDB
First time viewed: No
Current Release: No
Watched With: Kim, Jordan, Tyler

Terry Zwigoff made a big splash adapting Daniel Clowes' graphic novel Ghost World. Thats was pretty cool. Here they team up again to bring us a similar coming of age story this time set in the pretentious world of Art College, which provides plenty of hilarious fodder for characters and situations. They also manage to cram in a murder mystery on the side. Good for them.

This has a great cast that provide some very amusing characters. I find this film hilarious and a bit more accessible than Ghost World, primarily for the fact that the ending feels more definitive. It's a great little satire that I think has been overlooked but deserves more recognition.
