If you’re the kind of person that can’t spend more than thirty seconds on Tumblr without your eyes rolling into the back of your head, you’ll for sure appreciate Caplan’s snarky take on the kinds of Zooey Deschanel wannabes that can’t stop talking but don’t have anything to say.
In the end though, it’s not clear whether filmmaker Matthew Frost‘s main target is the hipster fashion girl or the fact that the fashion film is a commercial product masquerading as art.
