The King Is Alive

1. Roger Ebert said of this movie, "I imagine that many people would be actively hostile towards this movie."

2. It is a Dogme95 movie, which means it was created using the following set of rules called "The Vow of Chastity":

Shooting must be done on location. Props and sets must not be brought in (if a particular prop is necessary for the story, a location must be chosen where this prop is to be found).
The sound must never be produced apart from the images or vice versa. (Music must not be used unless it occurs where the scene is being shot.)
The camera must be hand-held. Any movement or immobility attainable in the hand is permitted.
The film must be in color. Special lighting is not acceptable. (If there is too little light for exposure the scene must be cut or a single lamp be attached to the camera).
Optical work and filters are forbidden.
Temporal and geographical alienation are forbidden. (That is to say that the film takes place here and now).
Genre movies are not acceptable.
The film format must be Academy 35 mm.
The director must not be credited.

That fact alone provides much potential, I would think.

1. It's "Shakespeare", sorta.

2. If anyone could make this movie funny, it would be you guys.

If those are all not good reasons, I don't know what is.
