Dash Snow rejected a life of privilege to make his own way as an artist on the streets of downtown New York City in the late 1990s. Developing from a notorious graffiti tagger into an international art star, he documented his drug- and alcohol-fueled nights with the surrogate family he formed with friends and fellow artists Ryan McGinley and Dan Colen before his death by heroin overdose in 2009. Drawing from Snow's unforgettable body of work and involving archival footage, Cheryl Dunn's exceptional portrait captures his all-too-brief life of reckless excess and creativity.

This was so, so, so bad. You can't even imagine how bad it is. The subjects come off idiotic, unable to even frame the premise in an interesting way. Their stories are facile, recounting their badass days of throwing wet toilet paper and watermelons onto sidewalks from above, suggesting this is peak anarchy.
For a guy who was supposed to have such a chaotic fast moving life, this movie in relentlessly boring. The guy, born in priviledge, clearly had a mental condition that was never addressed and ultimately offed himself via drugs. It's a bore and his so called art is amateurish. Why anyone wanted to document this clown is beyond me, except for the fact that he comes from a rich and priviledged family. His grandfather is Uma Thurman's father.
A great insight into the life of Dash Snow & the culture of early 00's New York. So many familiar faces throughout from various industries, was a great watch for a mix of music, graffiti & art right before social media.
