I wasn't a fan of this movie. It presupposed that you knew things about the filmmaker, Reid. He alludes to his "politicization," for instance, but I have no idea what he's referring to. He alludes to failed attempts at 9-5 jobs, with no explanation.

The movie was boring, frankly. A lot of stretches of nothing but the ground. And things go unexplained. When Reid screams the F bomb upon unlocking the door and entering his pitch black apartment, I'm pretty sure it was because the power was turned off, but not positive. And was he to blame for not paying his utilities? Was his outburst in reaction to his somehow being treated unfairly by a landlord or the electric company?

Davenport also has this fascination with a circus tent set up near his apartment, tying it to a statue of PT Barnum in his hometown, and thus creates this theme of the Freak Show. But it goes unresolved. Everyone recognizes that Freak Shows were wrong and represent an ugly point in our history, but what is he bringing new to the table as a handicapped man? Does he think we've learned the lesson or does he believe that exploitative spirit has just moved to something else?
