Public Domain (film)
Public Domain is a 2003 Canadian film about reality TV. It was directed by Kris Lefcoe and stars Nicole de Boer, Mike Beaver, Lindy Booth and Dov Tiefenbach. The film is openly critical of reality TV and portrays the hosts and producers as cruel and heartless people. While it was considered a feature film, it has toured film festivals more than it has been screened in cinemas.
Public Domain received mostly positive reviews, although many critics did not choose to review the movie. For example, the movie scored 57 at Rotten Tomatoes but only received seven reviews. Dennis Harvey from Variety did not give the movie a score, however the text of the review was borderline positive.However, Stephen Cole from the Globe and Mail gave Public Domain a negative review, saying that all characters but Don McKellar seem trapped in a mean, deadening satire and Ed Gonzalez from Slant Magazine gave it 1.5 stars out of comparing it to Big Brother and saying its muddled intent and miscalculated presentation gets at nothing. ........
