Description

CONFESSIONS OF A SUPERHERO is a feature length documentary that chronicles the lives of three mortal men and one woman who make their living working as superhero characters on Hollywood Boulevard. This deeply personal look into their daily routines reveals their hardships and triumphs as they pursue and achieve their own kind of fame. The Hulk sold his Super Nintendo for a bus ticket to LA; Wonder Woman was a mid-western homecoming queen; Batman struggles with his anger, while Superman's psyche is consumed by the Man of Steel. Although the Walk of Fame is right beneath their feet, their own paths to stardom prove to be long, hard climbs.

    99p rental, fantastic documentary about a left field profession, a beautifully crafted insight into these costumes as people, the stories, eccentricities and denials. Really well put together. Loved it, not sure to wait and see if it comes down to buy later or just rent at 99p again in future. Wonderful story about human beings that we probably never gave a second thought
  • Nice

    A very good documentary with excellent photography and cinematography. Unique in so many ways too. Far far more than I expected kept me gripped. Laughed and felt too for the characters. Unexpected twists made me interested. Excellent docu
