I, Curmudgeon (2004)


Director:
Alan Zweig

IMDB

Review:
In this often very funny enquiry into crankiness, Toronto filmmaker Alan Zweig interviews notable curmudgeons like Fran Lebowitz, Harvey Pekar and Bruce LaBruce. Zweig wants to know what their frickin' problem is and, more importantly, whether it's the same as his. As in Vinyl, his equally irascible doc on record collectors, the endearingly dour filmmaker spends much of I, Curmudgeon spilling his guts directly to his camera and torturing himself with big questions that he can never answer satisfactorily. Zweig then confronts his subjects with the same questions, thereby making them even grouchier. (How grouchy? Andy Rooney is moved to kick Zweig out of his office.) Though I, Curmudgeon's meandering structure and incessant jump-cuts are irritants, they're also appropriate to the movie's abrasive, anti-social personality. Consider this a testament to the power of negative thinking.

  2. Dude, a simple request - could you please upload your docs in megaupload? My download prog Jdownloader ( and most other progs out there. Ive tried them) cannot read the recaptcha thingy. So I would appreciate it very much if you could put them in megaupload. Beside not having a wait time limit, it also could store feature length movies, docs or whatever within a single link. Thanks a lot dude. Great site as always. Keep it up!

  3. This is a great site! Lots to enjoy here-- thanks!
    BTW, one I have been looking for for ages is 'The Long Night of Lady Day', a British doc about Billie Holiday that was shown on American Masters during its first season. Any hope of this one?
