Cinemania [2002]
This documentary about the culture of intense cinephilia in New York
City reveals the impassioned world of five obsessed movie buffs. The
filmmakers expose this delightfully deranged cult by capturing the daily
lives of its members. Interviews in movie houses, on the street and in
the homes of the subjects tell the story of each individual. Many cannot
hold a job, or choose not to. All of them have demoted the importance
of the real world, giving all of their attention to the fantasy world of
the movies. These human encyclopedias of cinema see two to five films a
day, and from 600 to 2,000 films per year. Many have no physical sex
lives, living instead in a world of romance with stars like James Dean
or Audrey Hepburn. In Cinemania, Hollywood's biggest fans become the
true stars. This is the story of their lives, their memories, their
unbending habits and the films they love.
