Wild Style is not a documentary, despite what it may look like from packaging or even camerawork. It’s a pretty slow-moving story of a man who writes on walls and his girlfriend’s alleged infidelity with another man who writes on walls. While this love triangle is being played out, there is a journalist woman who wants to find out about a new sub-culture that is happening in the Bronx. There is also a musical event being planned in the amphitheatre in the park to showcase the local musical talent.If you were reading the synopsis to this film anywhere, it would probably read something like that. But Wild Style isn’t about the story. It’s not about the acting, the direction or even the camerawork or sound recording (although the soundtrack is important).It is a film that has shaped a generation, purely with the members of the cast and the records used in the soundtrack. Wild Style is a historical document. It perfectly captures a time and place – the Bronx, New York 1982 – and most of

Is my friend a hipster?
He listens to acoustic indie music that I’ve never heard of. He’s going to art school in NYC and wanted to do film but now wants to become a graphic artist. He’s always wearing MTV/American Apparel t shirts, a Gap military jacket, a scarf, skinny jeans, and Converse and he claims to have his own “style.” He has a beard. He swears by his Macbook Pro and has an interest in graffiti and all around “urban” art. He takes black and white pictures. Some people think he’s gay Wild Style Graffiti but I doubt it, he’s just kind of feminine and hasn’t had a steady girlfriend. He doesn’t have a job but he has a lot of nice things. He’s always making music/movies/random stuff in Photoshop and saying that it sucks but at the same time suggests that he’s really talented. He participates in musical theater. He was voted “biggest gossip” at our high school. Instead of going to the beach for senior week like everyone else, he wants to go camping. He was Pac Man for halloween. He also really likes Where The Wild Things Are and Juno.BUT, he DOESN’T wear sweaters or short shorts or glasses, drink PBR, smoke, do crack, wear makeup, ride a fixed gear bike, have weird or dyed hair, or have any piercings or tattoos. He is never seen with neon colors and he doesn’t really stand out much at all. He’s not very ironic and he stays pretty clean. He also hangs out with people who I know aren’t hipsters, but they are kind of annoying. …So, I’m not sure. What do you think? Is he a hipster?
