Synopsis:

No German review yet:
Matthew Bate's 'Shut Up Little Man!' is a dandy little documentary whether you view the story it captures as a precursor to the flash fame of the Internet age or as one of the last genuine underground phenomena before the Internet made that whole concept obsolete. The film tells the tale of two men, Mitch Deprey and Eddie Guerriero, who in San Francisco in the late 1980s captured epic drunken arguments between two other men, their neighbors, on audiotapes. Copies of the tapes spread gradually through a sort of mixtape underground, and the two arguers, roommates named Peter Haskett and Raymond Huffman, became cult figures without even knowing it. The film's title comes from a line Mr. Haskett seemed particularly fond of hurling at Mr. Huffman. Mr. Bate's film, through interviews with Mr. Deprey, Mr. Guerriero and others, relates how the tapes came to be made, then considers the implications: the invasion-of-privacy angle, the exploitation angle, the notion that the tapes fed our collective inner voyeur. The themes might be heavy, but the treatment is light, with Mr. Bate throwing in some amusing touches; for instance, laying one particularly homophobic rant from the tapes over footage of a Hitler speech. In the end he makes the 'Shut Up' phenomenon feel as if it meant something, unlike the here-this-morning, gone-this-afternoon viral sensations of today.
