Exit Through the Gift Shop

I think the message of the film was street art had a place in the world. The film showcased artist different styles of street art. There was space invader who used mosaic tiles to make the characters, Banksy who had props such as; elephants, phone booths and dummies. After watching the film I didn't feel manipulated because I didn't know very much about it. The film opened my eyes to a new world. I took it for what it was, a film a guy with a camera going around filming people and becoming what they were. The thought never entered my mind that the whole thing could have been this conspiracy where Guetta was Banksy. But now that I think about it, it does make some sense. How does a guy afford to just travel around the world putting graffiti on walls, renting 15,000 square feet NBC studios, paying workers, buying film, food, travel expenses while having a family and paying the mortgage. That doesn't add up. Unless he had private funding for this movie from a artist who is selling pieces for millions in order to tell a particular story.
