ANVIL: The Story of Anvil

21 June, 2009

I’ve been AWOL for a while, so I apologize for that.
I don’t have anything particularly meaningful to say about this film, but I had to start back up somewhere. Might as well be here.
I wish that The Wrestler had felt like this film. But I wish, also, that this film would’ve been less… triumphant. I am tired, I suppose, of the overwhelming need for things to be Bigger and Better. Why must everyone have a screaming success at the end? The American Dream? Something like that, I suppose. Even rockers want their white picket fence. It’s sad to know that things have to be such and thus, or no one can be happy.
