That Grip

About This Movie

So, 'That Grip' from 1989 is this quirky comedy that really dives into the chaos of film production. It's set against the backdrop of a fictional movie called 'The Elephant Mandingo,' which just adds layers to the absurdity. The pacing is a bit erratic, but it somehow fits the frantic energy of a film crew scrambling to get everything right. Practical effects are surprisingly clever, adding a unique charm to the mix. The performances carry that offbeat humor, and there’s this underlying commentary about the behind-the-scenes madness that can be both hilarious and a tad insightful. Not your average comedy, for sure, has a certain indie vibe that collectors might appreciate.
