did anyone see this documentary? the description makes me wet:

netflix.com Wrote:
Lose yourself in this riveting documentary that chronicles the rise and ignoble fall of Troy Duffy, a bartender whose script for The Boondock Saints was picked up by Miramax bigwig Harvey Weinstein and made into a film. Like a freight train careening out of control, the arrogant Duffy -- once considered Hollywood's new wunderkind -- burns all his bridges, alienating his colleagues, his friends and his long-suffering brother, Taylor.

Duffy sounds like a character, and the doc should be interesting, but not a fan of Boondock Saints.

yeah, that movie sounds like such a minor character in this that it should be hilarious. or i guess really sad. one or the other.

A TERRIBLE movie. but this doc looks interesting.

wasn't great but it does look like he got justifiably steamrolled by the industry. wasn't as vicariously funny as i'd hoped.

supposedly he's working on All Saints Day but i don't know how realistic that is. from watching this i wouldn't recommend holding your breath. actually, this movie was more about his comittment to his band than anything else, with a lot of those DiG moments where Brian Jonestowne guy says "oh we're going to start a musical revolution! We're gonna redefine rock and roll" and then playing acoustic guitar being reflected here as well.
