Home Movies (1979)


A cult guru urges a shy disciple to make life a movie and be its star.

Ostensibly made by director De Palma as an exercise with his film students this is a haphazard satire with some neat cinematic ideas and a lot of hit-and-miss humor.

Maltin*1/2: "Flaky farce reminiscent of De Palma's early work...Original in concept but tiresome in execution, although nobody eats a hamburger like Allen."
