TV Junkie (2006)

Directors:
Michael Cain
Matt Radecki

Evo dokumentarca za koji bi ja rek'o da je na ivici da bude genijalan, ali nisam siguran da će se baš svima svideti, i to ne iz razloga što možda nije za svačiji ukus, nego samo zato jer ovih dana ni u šta nisam siguran, ili što bi reko naš narod U NIŠTA, pa ni u svoj sud. Rick Kirkham je video fanatik, i pored toga što radi na televiziji, što ima svoju emisiju, on opsesivno snima sve bitnije događaje u svom životu, znači mladalačke ludorije, žurke, putovanja, rođenje deteta, i sve što ide uz to, ali u svom brutalno iskrenom pohodu takođe snima i negativne akcije poput pušenja kreka, svađa sa suprugom, dolazak murije na gajbu, deca vrište, žena plače, otpuštanje sa posla zbog navučenosti na krek, lečenje pa opet navlačenje, uglavnom ovaj film vam dođe ko manična depresija, samo ide gore-dole, ups and downs. Krene mu dobro, gistro sredio se, klin je već metar dana, onda slupa auto i tako u krug.

Prvih 30-ak minuta filma će vas možda malo iritirati Rikov lik, a i malo je sve to zbunjujuće jer ne kontate gde je tu zapravo zaplet, ali kad se naviknete na ovu facu, kad ga izvalite da je OK sve ide lagano, pluta što bi se reklo. Pokrivene su skoro cele 90-e, muzika je super usklađena, i sav materijal korišćen u filmu je home-movie i iz Rikove privatne arhive. Brutalno iskrena moving story o tome kako gudra razara porodice, znači nema ravnodušnih, nema nevinih, take no prisoners, LIFE as it is, na ivici incidenta.

A sad ko na imdb-u : ako vam se svidi ovaj film MOŽDA vam se dopadne i The Video Diary of Ricardo Lopez (2000), ali ćete zato provereno voleti Capturing the Friedmans (2003), Tarnation (2003) i Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father (2008). Znači, to nema šanse da omaši, ja garantujem, o tako mi Boga i Božića. (89 min)

"This 2006 Sundance Film Festival winner is a striking video diary of Rick Kirkham, a 48-year old television journalist who at first appears to be living a charmed life. After rising quickly through the ranks from local TV news to a gig as a national correspondent for Inside Edition, Kirkham spends weekdays in New York and weekends in Dallas with his wife and their two sons. But all is not as it seems: While covering drug raids as a TV reporter, Kirkham gets introduced to drugs and later becomes addicted to crack cocaine. Kirkham, who has documented virtually every facet of his life since he got his first video camera at age 14, brings his reporting instincts to bear on both the sunny and tragic aspects of his own life. He is as apt to record the birth of his sons as he is his frequent cocaine binges, painful family arguments and even home visits by police. In one particularly disturbing scene, he sets up the camera and walks us through the preparation of a makeshift aluminum foil pipe before smoking crack cocaine he has just scored on the streets of New York. Assembled from the more than 3,000 hours of footage shot by Kirkham himself, TV Junkie focuses on a seven-year period in which Kirkham says he used drugs about three times a week. Between stints in rehab, Kirkham's life unravels like a slow- motion train wreck: He loses his career, family and almost his life in an attempted suicide before getting clean and speaking publicly about the perils of addiction."
