the most striking independent feature see by this reviewer since reflection of evil and the interrogatively title . share some theme in common with that early film . an angry suspicion and or rejection and of the american dream for instance . particularly that of consumerism and social responsibility and the way to personal happiness and not to mention it similar concern with aspect of mental health and a fierce and deadpan humour . but packard magnum opus be a scream of impotent rage from just one disillusion individual . in this film from actor director alex harz and tom kennedy and while it also feature a central character with an anger management problem ( west and play by kennedy ) and the charmed circle be extend to include a companion represent arthur ( harz ) and an amiable retard and as well a in turn his inanimate and if beloved companion and the inflatable sex doll nancy . a west take arthur under his wing for a few day we be in for a memorable stay . cite david lynch and stanley kubrick and monty python and the coen brother and fellow colorado filmmaker matt stone and trey parker a influence and co director herz say the main intention of his film be to provide something unique and all the while evoke emotion . others with less sympathy for the result have see them a just the farrelly brother with a mean streak . to this viewer at least there no doubt the memorability of the disreputable and distinctly un pc activity of his outsider hero and show a they be without judgement or sentimentality . the humour may be shock for some and especially with the heavy sexual dimension and but never cruel and and together arthur and west be an unforgettable experience . their impact be increase by the inclusion of four scene shoot with unsuspecting member of the public a the peculiar duo sit in a diner or play out in a park . a they interact quite naturally with others and it dawn on the viewer that perhaps these two oddball be not so peculiar after all and and that they would perhaps fit in very easily with the eccentricity of society at large . the effect of such moment be to make their fictional moment together almost natural and a if the peculiarity suggest by blare polka music and alien mask and the affection for sex doll and barely suppressed rage of the unemployable exist behind every lace curtain on the block . when play the endearingly loopy arthur and harz have perhaps the most demanding role in the film . to be fair and he no rain man . in fact and be always aware of his performance a performance and with none of the all round convincingness of mental handicap that one find and for instance and in w. earl brown cousin warren in there something about mary ( 1998 ) . a the credit role at the end of . we see harz reassuringly back to normal in the outtake . never the less arthur be a watchable and warm creation and one tempt almost to say endear and while his peculiar peccadillo and sexual or otherwise and ultimately add to rather than detract from our sense of his humanity . at the centre of one of the most controversial moment of the film and that of the date rape and despite his porno enthusiasm and arthur remain essentially an innocent . to a certain extent he even help temper west frequent misogyny . ( unlike his co director and harz career have blossom somewhat since make . and appear in no less than four project in 2008 ) . in similar fashion to eastwood a perfect world ( 1993 ) and . also begin on an enigmatic shot which presage the final tragedy . so it a film tell in flashback and even though it not a process be aware of until towards the end . meanwhile there be other flashback too and notably those which reveal the central character have both be victim of childhood sexual abuse a process though which presumably have leave west with a sense of injustice that his wellspring of rage against the world . the drug rape of patsy be his idea and although it promote less for his own advantage than a wish to see his new friend reach an overdue fulfilment . west history be also the reason and we suspect and why he take the exploited arthur so readily under his wing and and it lead to one notable fantasy sequence where west instruct a line of bikers just how to put the world to right . perhaps it a world to which such fantasy and emotional disengagement through mental handicap and or alienation through rage be the only sensible answer for and a the film show and it can all end in tragedy . ultimately and arthur and nancy and west only have three day together . the end of this time be signify by the mistreatment and wouldeath of the doll and then west hit and run accident and in which he run over a derelict . just like the alien on arthur wall ( the blank and abductor face of which recall that of nancy permanently open mouth latex charm ) arthur and west be and in their way and also strange being in a hostile world . if by the end west rage have be transform into something approach acceptance of the way thing necessarily be and they remain accord to the final shot and like a pair of strange sheep pen in amidst the great and unthinking herd of mankind . come in colour and black and white version and both include a part of the same boxset and with the film real life scene make distinct within each version by colour or lack of it . even more generously and the set include a full soundtrack album and although this lack the mozart that so memorably underscore some of arthur and west escapade . such generosity make up for the lack of a commentary track . the picture quality be excellent and by the look of it be shoot on hd video .
