As a filmmaker, what do you do when you are making a rather run of the mill, straight forward vanity profile of a well known figure and, in the middle of making this profile, one of the most epic, insane, and legendary events in the history of that person's field occurs?
Do you:
A- Switch the focus of your documentary to this insane event and become the first person to fully report on it, thus giving you orignial control of the broader narrative and create a document that would be referenced in everything ever made about this defining moment.
B- Use it as a build up to a second documentary that then becomes the original version of the story.
C- Just kinda treat it like a thing that happened, kinda tack it on at the end, and then just roll credits.
If you answered "A" or "B," you are not the makers of this movie.
Join us as we discuss the most absurd waste of material ever published.
