Personally I really like the film, I think the theme of the film is basically chasing what moves you. I'm pretty sure the way I see Mr. Brain Wash is not how most people see him in movies. If it is true that at the end of the film we are not sure whether he is a real artist or not, at the same time we can understand the "secret" of his immediate success. Thierry Guetta is a daredevil, he is fearless, he needs motivation and freedom at the same time, as he said in the documentary. At the beginning of the film I see him as a very curious but also very intelligent boy. You can tell he wasn't very honest from the start selling fake "designer" clothes for thousands of dollars but at the same time I think he was thinking...let's give it a try, and who am I to say he's not a designer. ..after all what designer means is nothing more than unique clothes...and he was right in classifying those clothes as designer because it was true: they were unique. Throughout the film I see him as a person very focused first and foremost on his clothing store, a designer who sells. Then, when he got his camera, he religiously filmed every minute and sometimes even became a paparazzo. I think when he started filming his cousin Space Invader he was attracted to his lifestyle... so different from his own. After all, he was just a father with a family and his family films. As he said in the interview, he felt the rush, the adrenaline of the moment, and he had to film it with the same passion, almost obsession, as everything else. As he started meeting more and more artists, I think he started to feel accepted. He began to admire these kids who broke the law, painted walls and ran from the police. What he started was... halfway......when he was interviewed: he doesn't know how to stop, just like during filming. So I really love that his first show was a near million-selling success. I don't think anyone really believes that that would be the outcome... For some reason everyone expected failure. So it was a joke that an overnight artist - as he put it - was so successful. It was a joke that a guy who was only a shadow of street art artists had become such a famous and in-demand artist to the point that his works had gone around the world. I have never seen Thierry as an advantageous person because yes, he earned a million but he also gave away 300 works of art to the first people who participated in his fair, and I see how grateful he was to them by trusting him even just out of curiosity but they has arrived, and that means a lot to Thierry.Works CitedExit the Gift Shop - Banksy Films
