reality film
Reality film or reality movie describes a genre of films that have resulted from reality television,〔(From Cancun to Harvard ), Faryl Ury, The Harvard Crimson, April 25, 2003〕 such as ''The Real Cancun'', MTV's film version of ''The Real World'', which was originally titled ''Spring Break: The Reality Movie''.〔( The Love and hate Relationship with Reality TV ), Pace University Press, September 21, 2005.〕〔"This is the first time anyone has tried to take a reality concept to the theaters," said casting director Damon Furberg . "Think of it as a reality version of a teen movie like American Pie."(MTV's film hits Boston ), Lindsay Hearne, The Daily Free Press, June 30, 2003, retrieved on August 22, 2007〕 In an article in ''Time Magazine'', Joel Stein wrote, "Like reality TV, a reality film is supercheap, and as ''Jackass'' proved, there's an audience willing to pay $9 for what it gets free on television."〔(Cue the Tequila ), Joel Stein, Time Magazine, April 23, 2003.〕 Typically, a pre-determined situation is staged or created, often with the use of non-professional actors, and then the "reality" of what happens is filmed. In an article on reality movies, ''Variety Magazine'' pointed out the low budget of reality films in an era of skyrocketing marketing and production costs for traditional films has made them an attractive option for studios, with the selling point being "Tits and ass. Teenage tits and ass, that is."〔(Will beach babes be boffo B.O.? Quickie pix hope to reap 'Jackass'-style action ), Gabriel Snyder, Variety Magazine, April 20, 2003.〕
==History of reality film==
"The thinking behind these pics is not new," wrote Gabriel Snyder in ''Variety'' about the techniques employed by recent reality movies.〔 "In the 1950s, Samuel Arkoff tapped into teen auds with quickies like ''Rock All Night'' and ''Reform School Girl'' and beach films such as ''Bikini Beach'' ("It's where every torso is more so, and bare-as-you-dare is the rule!").〔 London's ''Evening Standard'' called Andy Warhol's 1966 film ''Chelsea Girls'' a reality film and noted that the ''Radio Times Guide to Film 2007'' stated it was "to blame for reality television."〔( Warhol 'reality' film named in top 100 ), Alexa Baracaia, Evening Standard, October 4, 2006.〕〔(Chelsea Girls ), Vienna International Film Festival description ("The film is a fascinating mixture of feature and reality film.")〕 The film consists of drugged-out conversations between Warhol Superstars Nico, Ondine, Brigid Berlin, Mary Woronov and Gerard Malanga.〔(Snapshot: Chelsea Girls ), Will Hodgkinson, The Guardian〕 "I was the only one who memorised my lines," said Woronov, "and no one even noticed."〔 In 1970, ''Candid Camera'' creator Allen Funt made the film ''What Do You Say to a Naked Lady?'', where he secretly filmed people's reactions to unexpected encounters with nudity in unusual situations. However, it was with the advent of reality television, which presents purportedly unscripted dramatic or humorous situations, documents actual events, and features ordinary people instead of professional actors, combined with the smash box-office success of ''Jackass The Movie'' in 2002, that made reality film a genre studios began to consider seriously.〔 ''The Real Cancun'' billed itself as "the first reality feature film", causing Scott Foundas to remark in his review in ''Variety'' that such a claim is "apparently ignoring last year's ''Jackass The Movie''".〔(The Real Cancun ), Scott Foundas, ''Variety Magazine'', April 20, 2003.〕 In 2003 Comedy Central aired its feature length reality movie ''Windy City Heat'', starring Tony Barbieri and Bobcat Goldthwaite (who also directed).〔(Press Release for Windy City Heat )〕 In the movie, friends of real life aspiring actor Perry Caravello convince him he is playing the lead (as a "sports memorabilia private eye") of an action movie titled "Windy City Heat," itself faux-directed by Bobcat Goldthwait; everyone is in on the elaborate joke except Caravello.〔(Windy City Heat ) review, Robert Koehler, ''Variety Magazine'', May 5, 2004.〕
