It is a very well acted movie. It is almost entirely holds on acting. Ryan Gosling portrays his womanizer character so well that it is insane. And the interactions he has with Emma Stone are pure cinematic gold.

This movie has a wonderful kind of identity crisis. Sometimes it is a teen romance. Sometimes is a serious drama about life with a single parent. Sometimes it is a horror monster movie. Sometimes it is Goonies. Sometimes it is kids driving cars because the adult is too stoned. Sometimes it is an explosive war film. Sometimes it is E.T. But that is kind of what makes this movie fun. It is exploding with energy!

I'm Not Even Human was a mild success. It got a few thousand views on YouTube. And some people liked it. I thought that it was a nice stepping stone which I can use to start going into serious cinema. Right after the movie was done I was seriously trying to use its existence to justify a studio giving me money to make my next movie that would be an entirely my vision. I would not agree to some other asshole directing it. And I would show them I'm Not Even Human as a proof that I can do something. I got through one phone call with a studio in Israel. And they were quick to catch me on my bullshit. My only movie is not even a little popular. What is a few thousand views? A few thousand views from people that do not need to pay to see your stuff. Compare it to cinema, where people pay money for a god damned ticket! Yes Christopher Nolan's first film "Following" got a few thousand views too. But every single one of those views was paid by the people who came to see it in the cinema.

I am not blaming you if you said yes, by the way. Sometimes with desperation the only choice is to give up. I know people who had to sleep on the street in cold winters. They told me that they would break store fronts with a stone or a brick, to break enough laws, to get put into prison, so they could survive. Prisons are warmer than streets.
