CRAZY LOVE

CRAZY LOVE MORE THAN LOCO

If you have seen WHEN HARRY MET SALLY you'll enjoy the twisted way this documetary was shot. Interlaced with still photographs of times gone by, we are introduced to Burt and Linda Pugach, and then slowly we meet their friends and co-workers etcetera. They tell funny stories of how they met and what everyone else thought of the dynamic duo. It reminded me so of those clips between "decades" in WHMS where they had real life couples talking about how they met and fell in love instantly. This movie was called "mezmerizing" by some and though documentaries aren't my favorite, I love crazy. What a let down. Long story short, he had an affair with a woman who didn't know he had a wife and child, and as she was on her way out of the relationship, he pulled an Ike, threatening "I can't have you, no one else will have you, and when I get through with you, no one else will want you." So, like any other like minded obsessed crazy in love kinda guy, he hired thugs to throw lye in ther face which resulted in her blinding and disfigurement. While Burt went to the big house for 14 years, they wrote to each other and eventually married. I don't get it. Why would anyone want to document this terrible ordeal? Once more, all the talking and monotone voices literally put me to sleep. It looked like a good one, but unless you are in need of a nap, pass.

NOT A PICK: I felt morally dirty just by watching and found it boring and dull.
