Twisted: A Balloonamentary
It all starts with the balloon dog. Once you can make this, you can make anything. At least that's what the balloon "artists" in Twisted: A Balloonamentary say, but some of the ornate and monumental structures that they construct in the movie indicate that one other ingredient is needed: a big ol' dose of the crazy. Twisted, which features some brief narration by Jon Stewart, is strongest when it shows the balloon artists' work, some of which is pretty remarkable, like the huge 40-foot tall soccer players or the intricate geisha girl. It's less gripping when it focuses on the twisters themselves; for most of them, balloon twisting is the most interesting thing about them.
