I'm happy to oblige just a few minutes if it brings about lasting memories and insights. And when you say "awesome film", I assume that to mean you were witness to Banksy's new film, I suppose?
It's unreal in the way he almost created a new genre of filmmaking and
marketmanship, just because he was being stalked by some French guy with a mission to interview him.
And apologies to those who may feel I'm making too much fuss, and giving too much exposure to any one Graffitic artist, but for 1) He's arguably the most renowned street artist, let alone actual "artist", worldwide right now (probably due to the fact his pieces can actually be seen in streets worldwide) coming up to 2) in that he is also one of the most "mysterious" personalities we have seen since Dali (or even Daft Punk) and finally 3) these graffiti/street art installations are actually beginning to spawn in nearly every Metropolitan area's backyards, so if you do get a chance, why not see what the fuss his message is actually about, I say.
