Four-Eyed Monsters is fascinating for a unique depiction of a new type of courtship, effectively capturing how the new generation communicates and relates to one another through multimedia outlets like computers, videos, audio, text messages, MySpace, and other non-physical sources. If one were to look at it in a more cynical light, their idealized opinions of one another keep them interested, but both individuals find it easier to express themselves by channeling these feelings through another process — verbal connections and physical embraces are as foreign to them as their art is to those not in the same creative realm. As far as the film itself goes, it’s a short and very low budget film, with actors that aren’t professional (though not exactly amateurish either) and a somewhat narcissistic bent that is often inherent in an artistic treatment like this. When the whole film consists of two people putting themselves out there, everything they think, hope, dream, and despair about, it’s not a given that the audience will find a personal connection with it, depending on their frames of reference. I think it helps to have an attraction to the need for self-expression that exists in nearly every artist, as the film is the embodiment of two artists conveying how they feel to one another through words, symbols, reflections, and technological devices. It’s not an easy film to like, as it is quite pessimistic at times, but if you’ve ever had a relationship that has existed through mostly digital means, you may find it strikes a chord in you.

Not a lot of people throw the word arty around when concerning movies anymore. Most movies, even summer blockbusters, have a touch of what LOOKS like inspired art direction in them. But Four Eyed Monsters is an artist’s art-house movie, while at the same time appealing to the average movie goer with an inspiring tumultuous love affair. This movie speaks to anyone who looks for love even though they know they’re too dysfunctional to have or to keep it. The characters deal with the reality of love with flaws, and their desire to find some new and original in themselves leads them to create a one-of-a-kind relationship which combines their frailties as people with their strengths as artists. Their successes and more importantly their struggles as a couple mirror their and our hurdles as artists with confidence but without direction. When everyone thinks they’re special and an artist, how does one create art? When everyone believes that true love is not only possible but expected, how does one survive REAL love? These are the questions asked by Four Eyed Monsters. My favorite part of the film was how visual art and inventive film-making showed off the artistic merits of the two protagonists. Stop-motion and other animations compliment the voice-overs and a variety of ballsy camera techniques combine with original music, performance and even dance to make a film that is a feast for the eye. What better way to express the inexpressible struggles artists have with their own minds? Not since Man with a Movie Camera have I felt so strongly that film can go anywhere and do anything as I have here. More than just a flash in the pan indie sensation, this film is a daring and heartfelt exploration of issues near to the hearts of young people. My only hope is that this movie will get continuing raves and the wider audience that it deserves.

After my ever so long wait to see the movie, I finally have. It’s hard to describe this movie without just sayin “you gotta see it.” But, honestly; you HAVE to see it.
