People have been talking about that movie like it's incredibly amazing, but I have been wondering what's so interesting about that lady and her fraud stuff. Review sites are saying it's better than Citizen Kane, the new greatest movie ever and shit. Makes me wonder if it's all an elaborate Nathan Fielder prank to fool the public into thinking he made a great movie.
Eh, I heard the director involved - Lance Oppenheim - is well known for staging theatrical moments in his "documentaries" often getting participants to "play" scenes and say lines a certain way, and doing multiple takes to get what he wants.
So, reality TV basically. Like apparently that's just the style of "documentaries" he's known for. Nathan Fielder is also now known for similar, what with building whole sets so people can rehearse parts of their life.
Ever since finding this out about the "documentary" I've lost interest in it. From Wikipedia:
Lance Oppenheim (born January 26, 1996) is an American director and producer. His work blends nonfiction storytelling with heightened, cinematic formalism.

Nathan Fielder’s career arc is baffling to me. He reminds me of Andy Kaufman. I can’t wait to see this film
