Everybodys Famous
This film was reccomended to me by some Belgian people I talk to on the net, they said it
was one of the best to come out of their country so I decided to check it out. All in all, I
have to say that I really enjoyed it. It's not entirely original, but what it lacks in originality, it
makes up for with it's ability to charm and entertain. I don't want to give away too much of
it, but the story mainly revolves around fame and the desire to achieve it. Of course, it's
always much harder for some, more so than others; mainly those who aren't blessed with
the looks, or all of the talent. "Everybody's Famous" is one of those rare, truly "feel good"
films that don't come around too often. Hollywood often tries to make films like this, but
often fall flat by making it too cutesy. One thing I don't understand about this movie is how
it ever got rated "R"... were the ratings board members drunk or asleep the day they rated
this movie? There's no bad language in it, and only a brief amount of (non-explicit) nudity.
So, if you're wondering if it's appropriate for the younger crowd, I would definately
reccomend it for them; it should've been rated PG-13. The bottom line is, if you appreciate
charming, feel-good flicks about the various struggles in life, then you'll love this. It was
also nice to see that this film was nominated for an Academy Award in 2001 (Best
Foreign Language Film).
