Default Catfish
Quote:
When New York photographer Nev Schulman receives a painting based on one of his photographs from Abby, an eight-year-old child prodigy in Michigan, they become Facebook friends, and Nev develops online relationships with Abby's family, in particular with her attractive elder half-sister Megan.

But is everything as it seems? Nev travels to Michigan to find out.

A reality thriller that is a shocking product of our times, Catfish is a riveting story of love, deception and grace within a labyrinth of online intrigue.

True Stories commissions and showcases the best international feature documentaries.
This was brilliant. A film/real life documentory. An eyeopener. Especially with us all online.......

If you can catch it, do. Sadly not available on C4 OD right now

Well, bascially Nev was duped into thinking he was chatting to some young lass who was painting his pictures. Then he got talking to her older sister. Trouble is he spotted a few slip ups. As they'd already exchanged details he and his brother and mate travelled to see what was what. Long story short it was all bollocks and it was some woman pretending to be about 15 different people.

Theres more to it, obviously, but thats a general gist


It is good.

OMG!

I told everyone to watch this today in class because it looked epic, I told my nan to watch it aswell, I was so excited to see this from last week when I seen the advert.

And guess what?
I forgot to watch it.


Will it be on 4OD or something?

Oh and -

Spoiler:

the older daughter he had started to fall for didn't exist (it was the mother) and the paintings were also painted by her, not the young girl Abbey. The mother was the batty woman

It was very good, I think I would have just defriended them all as soon as the slip ups started I think.

Spoiler:

I felt quite sorry for the woman in the end, she's got a lot of issues and unresolved anger I think.

Brilliant movie I thought. Think you kinda have to watch it spoiler free though, that way the reveal is more shocking.
