well at the begining of the movie he said that he just wanted to connect with people and that he used names as his tool to connect. If he wanted to he could have used "men with goatees" or "fat film makers" to connect with other people.

Absolutely Awesome Jim.  This is one of the best films i've seen in a long long time. I found myself sitting here with tears in my eyes at the end, because it really struck a chord deep inside, and that's rare for this cynical New Yorker. H(B)ollywood and other commercial venues could learn a thing or 2 about filmmaking. It appears your quest was 2 fold.. One to find out who you were, and the other to determine whether or not you were a film maker. You absolutely are one of the best!

well, I had never heard of DG when I started the project...but i've sure heard of him now!! he has dedicated and loyal fans, and he deserves them, he's really funny and talented. That said, I take the concept in a little different direction, with different results.

it doesnt have to have artistic value, it was more of a documentary of this guys "quest" to find people with the same name as him.

also none of these "much more interesting people" did this so i guess this is what you get.
