I also just watched Catfish the other day - did anyone else see this? It's a documentary, supposedly, but it seems so scripted I can barely believe it's actually a documentary. It's about a guy who starts an online affair with a hot girl, and finds out later she might not be who she claims to be. Don't want to spoil it. It was fun to watch though. There is controversy around it's legitimacy. I heard there was a article that the filmmakers admitted it was fake, but I haven't seen it. IMO I think the story is completely true, but they had to re-shoot a bunch of the scenes in the beginning and middle (ie. the scene where she sends them songs) because they wouldnt make sense/ give the ending enough of an emotional impact. The reactions may be fake, but the situations are real. There is no way anyone could ever right a character like Angela Wesselman. She may the most "real" human being on film ever. Oh, I definitely think she could be written, just not by those dildos.

I watched Catfish tonight, and it did seem scripted to me, even though I don't have much experience with documentaries. It seemed like Nev and Ariel knew where it was going at the very beginning. I wasn't sure why they started filming in the first place, so that made me think it's written. Angela did seem very real, and I was honestly expecting much worse from her at the end. I really enjoyed it though! Very interesting.

did anyone get the animated short category? I really thought that Day and Night was going to win that. Granted I didn't get a chance to watch the others and I think the academy requires you to prove you watched all of them to vote.
