How amateur directors make a name in film history

The first thing I want to say is that although I haven't finished watching this movie, the endurance test results are not bad, and I lasted for more than 40 minutes.

Until the group of women quarreled around the torch as to whether to kill the child, Huang Mao said no, and Black Mao said it must. Huang Mao continued to insist that when I didn't want it, I only noticed that there was no barrage protection at this time, and I was already alone in the funny hinterland.

The film itself is useless, but if you refer to the serious film system, the four words are sweet and humorous. The unwilling soundtrack, the female protagonist with long reflex arcs, the plot of constantly wearing gangsters, and the embarrassing costumes of honey, when combined with the barrage, it is simply a comedy of family joy.

This movie is known as the worst in film history. No matter what, as long as its adjective is preceded by the most, there is often a story behind it. It is said that this movie will appear in the laughter of popular American TV series from time to time. The amateur actors who have appeared in this movie will receive invitations from various media.

According to rumours, the director of the film was a fertilizer distributor, and one day he vowed to make a movie because he bet with a friend. Four days later, the film was successfully completed. The hostess got a bicycle, and the supporting actor Teddy got a bag of dog food.

The screening was quite a sensation, with high-ranking government officials attending. One minute after the movie started, the creators began to realize that their brains were leaking during the performance, and they left the table to avoid embarrassing interrogation. The director himself insisted on seeing the end, and was slapped with a handbag by an angry aunt.

Decades later, when all crew members had forgotten this dark history, someone turned it out again. It began to clamor, approaching the protagonist of mainstream movies. It has even become a smiley stem for talk show hosts when they mention bad movies. In such an unimagined way, people accepted its badness and admitted that if it were a little better, it would definitely be forgotten forever.

History has made such a paradoxical achievement for an amateur director of eighteenth-rate to stay in film history. If we say that there are two ways to shoot in film history, one is to shoot like Shawshank's Redemption, then the other must be like Manos.
