Anyone seen it? New film about street art, starring the elusive Banksy.
I watched it tonight, and dug it a lot.

IMDB reviews, etc. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1587707/)

I saw this film a month or two ago, and absolutely loved it. The story was not only extremely enticing and entertaining, but the movie shows you don't need a huge budget and special effects to make a good film.

There is speculation on whether this film is a documentary that was actually made by "Mr. Brainwash", or another ingenious ploy created by Banksy to fool the general public. Regardless, the film does has political and anti-capitalist undertones, as it shows how street artists created out of passion, versus "fine art" that is created to make money and to become a commodity. If the film is available in your town, I suggest you watch it. :thumbup1:
