Put the Camera on Me

About This Movie

So, 'Put the Camera on Me' is this quirky little gem that gives a raw peek into the formative years of Darren Stein. It's kind of a mix of comedy and documentary, capturing these kids, Stein and Adam Shell among them, who take on heavier themes like jealousy and sexuality through their own lens. The pacing feels a bit loose, which adds to the authenticity; you can see the kids just playing and experimenting with their craft. There’s something almost nostalgic about watching their youthful takes on adult issues. The practical effects are minimal, but it’s the performances that really stand out, as you can tell they’re just being kids, but with a hint of that early filmmaking passion. It’s distinctive in its honesty.
