a very good, weird and deeply personal film by the grandson of John Paul Getty, the oil billionare. Shot over many years, this is a labour of love and hate. A true expression of inner demons. (he shot it in his own house, and even did the VFX work himself!) Very sadly Andrew Getty committed suicide on completion of the film. it was to be his only film. He wasn't just a weird rich kid, he was also very talented. :(
note: watch the change of hairstyles on the actors, as they come in for pickup shots, years apart!
It is like David Lynch's weird cousin made Tommy Wiseau's The Room while on loads of drugs.
