Beaver Trilogy (2000)

Our story begins in 1979, with a chance meeting in a Salt Lake City parking lot where filmmaker Trent Harris is approached by an earnest small-town dreamer from Beaver, Utah. Harris jumps at the chance when the young man invites him to come to the small town to film a talent show. At the show, the man dons a blond wig and performs in drag as Olivia Newton John. Harris captures it all on tape: A portrait of a true outsider. Harris shot a dramatic piece, "Beaver Kid 2" based on the documentary; This interpretation of the story, made in 1981 on a home video camera with a budget of $100, features a young Sean Penn as "the Beaver Kid". Still possessed, Harris then rewrote the script, cast up-and-comer Crispin Glover in the lead, and created the final segment, "The Orkly Kid", with funding from the American Film Institute. The trilogy unveils the inner world of a fantastic character in three incarnations.

So weird, and so great. Being from small town Utah totally hits close to home.

I'm so glad that I finally got to see this!

A perfect example of the way in which film can be used as a weapon. Here, either in trying to make a social comment on its own destructiveness or in just being cruel, it seems to extract some kind of pleasure in humiliating its subject- a real, honest, heartfelt man by the name of Richard LaVon Griffiths. This poor man's story is exploited and ridiculed, and his absolute enthusiasm and trust in filmmaker Trent Harris is taken advantage of and eventually raped. I enjoyed spending a strange but good humored half-hour or so with the original Griffiths, but seeing him get made fun of and beat up was not something I enjoyed or even found value in. A hurtful project with no aesthetic or moral value.

Gary said it best during his Olivia Newton-Don impression: "I love you channel two, I hope you need me, too." Both sides of the camera are getting what they need in The Beaver Kid. I couldn't actually finish watching Sean Penn's performance after seeing Crispin Glover completely embody that character. He seems to think he's in an SNL skit, whereas Glover understands the humanity of what's happening during the talent show in Beaver and clearly has great love for the eccentric Gary. Beaver's Rich Little just wants to make people laugh, and maybe dress up like a woman now and then. It's hard not to be thrilled when you encounter a person being true to themselves.
