Responce to Chelse Girls

To be honest, I really was not very satisfied with this film. In fact the shooting style was so outrageous it actually made me dizzy and lightheaded. I'm fine with playing with the camera and all, bu this was just too much for me. I though the Pope part was very funny until he actually hit the girl. After about ten minutes of that I was really conflicted whether it was still funny or serious. I think the real problem was that everyone that was involved with this film was so overwhelmed by drugs that it is just very difficult to take this film with a sober eye. It wasn't even that out there compared to some of the other films we watched, but it was just so difficult to consume at a sensory level that I had a lot of trouble with it. Also, I didn't really like how the sound was exclusively on one reel. I would have rather had it jump back between the two as it was supposed to happen when it was live. I understand there are technical limitations to this, but I really don't think this should have been shown if we couldn't understand or, at least, play with it in its proper way.
