To me, this movie is perfection.

good back-story, and good acting

Absolutely the worst movie.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

I loved Creative Nonfiction, this is the type of film people should look at in terms of production cost. When you're starting out in film you have to do a lot with nothing, and that is exactly what Lena does. You can see the raw talent that Lena possesses with her acting and dialogue. I think what makes the film so effective is that, as the viewer, I felt like I was prying into Ella's life. It's almost like going through someone's phone and digging through all their inner-most personal conversations and pictures. The whole movie was like a diary, and I think people are interested in that. Whenever we overhear a conversation about girls talking about their sex lives, you sort of want to linger around and overhear, because it's interesting. Creative Nonfiction is just that, it's a personal diary of a college woman's life.The objective, hand-held camera-work works great, still photography would have made the scenes monotonous, and it would have played out within the first 15 minutes. It's an impressive debut by the very young Lena Dunham.

The first time I went to watch this my spoiled brain stopped it after 10 minutes because it was not high cost production. The second time I loved it, it explored a lot of cringe moments between people who are trying to, or might, sleep together. Although there are some similar premises and characters to Dunham's work GIRLS this work reached more toward the existential aspects of the shared moments. I think it should score higher and also it didn't seem long enough, I could have watched for twice as long once I got into it. Initially I had to adjust to the acting and the camera style. In the end it's differences added to it's charm.
