A lot of fun.
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
I have to admit that I couldn't watch more than five minutes at a time of AIMY IN A CAGE, a ridiculously quirky sci-fi comedy made on zero budget. Remember those mock-TV show scenes in NATURAL BORN KILLERS, starring Juliette Lewis? Well, imagine those made up to feature length, and you have this film. It's tacky, cheesy, and extremely broad, featuring a barrage of camera effects attempting to hide the fact that there's no proper story. Crispin Glover stars, surprisingly enough, but the whole thing is still an embarrassment.
Hahaha... Just watched this Indie Film and I wouldn't recommend it to just anyone. It has many random scenes that many would claim to "not to make a lick of sense".Perhaps I may have seen the plot a little too deep, for what I saw, was a girl living under a lot of criticism, forced to be a "perfect little lady", bullied by her family for being different, tricked/manipulated/back-stabbed by them to make her do things she clearly does not want to do and has to put up with all of it daily. Everything in the movie (to me) was shown as over exaggerated and symbolized.I saw Aimy as a broken spirit. Just by living with those people who judged her constantly... no wonder she's lost her mind, no wonder she felt over protective of herself and felt that she couldn't trust her own family. After all the daily torture, she was fed up by it all. Personally, throughout the entire film, I felt like reaching out to her just giving her a hug.Aimy just wants to live her life her own way and be accepted for who she is.And just to include, I think Allisyn A. Arm did a remarkable job in bringing out Aimy's character uniqueness and features. You rock girl <3
This is the kind of German Expressionism meets Art-Deco Kitsch that was popular with low-budget guerrilla filmmakers and artsy porn directors in the eighties, and even then not so much. Style-over-substance without any discernible style other than pseudo-fifties-steam-punk, this is what would happen if you gave a first-year film student a six-figure budget. If you attempt to hang on through the first twenty minutes or so hoping that a semblance of structure or cohesion will begin to take hold of what loosely passes for a plot, you'll just wind up more disappointed. You'd be better off digging up an old copy of Meet the Hollowheads or Terrorvision. Even Cafe Flesh would feel like a step up from this.
Just a heads up, this is an art film. It's weird and unpredictable. So if you go into this expecting an easily defined setup, confrontation, and resolution, you will be bitterly disappointed. If, however, you're the type of person who can hang with the uncomfortable, unconventional, and macabre...well you might still be disappointed, but at least you'll know why. In this film you will find random characters and bizarre situations. You might identify metaphors or parallels with society. You might just sit and smile at the absurdity of it all. So here now is your choice. Dive in and see how you fare.
