More Info

Once in a while, a film comes along that's just so unexpectedly fun and quirky that it leaves a lasting impression. Illuminata was such a film. Having now seen Living in Oblivion for a second time (thanks to the joys of encore cable screenings), I'd say it also falls into this category.

Really funny movie about everything that can go wrong when filming a scene. A zinger of an ending. Cleverly structured. It had me laughing again on a second viewing.
