"Near Myth: The Oskar Knight Story" is a well-crafted docu-parody guaranteed to keep film buffs and industry veterans smiling (and sometimes laughing out loud!).
The humor is subtle, often dry, evoking numerous grins and chuckles without resorting to crude or heavy-handed comic writing techniques. The mock biopic portrays a fictional director, Oskar Knight, through a series of interviews and historical interludes that paint a tongue-in-cheek portrait of Hollywood's Golden Era, and the film humorously explores idiosyncratic personality types that seem ubiquitous in Tinseltown throughout its history.
