Catfish Paper
If I had the chance to watch the movie Catfish again, I would. The documentary is about the relationship between a young artist named Abby and a photographer named Nev. The whole thing is being filmed by Nev’s brother Rel and Henry. The film takes place in New York and Michigan and was mostly filmed in their home and studio. Nev, Rel, and Henry are the main characters.
Nev is a young photographer that takes pictures of dancers and had one of his pictures featured in a newspaper. This is how Abby found him. She painted that photo and sent it to him and that’s how they started their relationship. Abby lives in Michigan with her mom, dad, brother, and sister. Over the course of the 9 months Nev is sending photos to Abby, he and Megan begin a relationship and they both begin to have feelings for each other. Megan is 20 years old and lives on a horse ranch by herself. The mom Angela seems just like a normal middle aged woman with good looks.
After seeing this movie I can’t believe that the events actually took place. The story has such a twist that you think that it can’t be a true story. Everything about this movie being real is what makes this movie so great.
I would definitely recommend this movie to kids or adults. This movie teaches an important lesson about who you can trust on the internet and how you can be deceived.
