Famous (2021)
More than a film, it's an experience!
I've seen the actual theatre production and loved it then but seeing the film was a whole new experience. Watching the film gave me more insight as to what was happening in the show. The actors are so committed to their roles that it made the film so real. At first you may think it's a stage production, but after 10 minutes one gets absorbed and it plays as a film. "Famous" is an experience where all senses are challenged. The music, the lighting, the choreography and the actual story sweep you into another world where you actually feel it on a visceral level. The content is intense but it is a story that MUST be told. The writer, director Michael Leoni has captured the essence of the 90's and the Hollywood scene. He is a true storyteller who challenges the viewer on many levels.
I cannot recommend this film enough. It may be tough at first to watch but it's message is a powerful one.
