You, too, can be an artist!
This film was produced and directed by Roger Corman, the King of the B's. Corman directed a little over 50 films, but he produced seven times that many. He launched the careers of martin Scorsese, Francie Ford Coppola and Peter Bogdonovich, to name a few. he is a wizard of the low-budget film.
While this is a perfect example of that, it is still a fascinating work. It takes place in the land of beatniks. pretentious SOBs that think they are "hip." Walter (Dick Miller) was just a low functioning busboy. he wanted to be appreciated, but those around him were too busy loving themselves.
He stumbles upon a "talent" while he was trying to create and becomes a star. One cannot talk about his talent without giving away secrets, but suffice it to say, it makes for interesting theater.
An excellent example of Corman's work.
