“I love the idea of a u0026#39;making ofu0026#39; documentary also being a personal u0026#39;memoiru0026#39; by the filmmaker, as we are made to understand by the filmu0026#39;s title. A great idea. It gave the film a lot more substance…actually made it a real film, and not just a tribute to another film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt was interesting to see what had become of the people involved in Street Trash twenty years later. Some did not fare as well as others, and there was a real sense of melancholy about the final section of the film, unexpected and somewhat profound.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI wonder if the writer/producer anticipates making a film about his The Substitute. Iu0026#39;d be curious about his coverage of a franchise that clearly had smaller budgets as it wore on.”
