Beautiful Losers film trailer

[billysumo]

Well made documentary that leaves the viewer with an appreciation of the art and authentic glimpses into artistic personalities. The starving artist/art who comes to be appreciated and esteemed is old story. The Renaissance prinices and popes liked to own their artists; global capitalism allows the artist to accept or to decline commissions, celebrity, and so on. We want to live in a more beautiful environment. That requires artists working mainstream. Available on AMAZON PRIME VIDEO!

[Maddy922]

Ok, in my opinion, this is punk. Being a kid even though you are an adult. You still have the child like mind.

[accordingtored12345]

Alright those 15 dislikes, i know where you live and i coming for you. watch your back because everywhere you go im there.

[NinaLuxful]

would have loved to see a few black artists featured in this film as well

[rupertshean]

nice spirit, but too much: "you can't be in our gang unless you came from a broken home". Would have been cool if they were friends with a completely posh rich businessman with a big heart and who could also paint like a genius. that would have been much more thought provoking

[yogapradag]

THOSE WHO WANT NOTHING, CREATE OR CHANGE NOTHING

brilliant and inspiring film, reminiscent of friends i had in high school... bored, yet brilliant and talented nerds expressing themselves for the sake of expression! i fear that the overindustrialization and commercialization of art and music, and the new ease of technologies' ability to instantize EVERYTHING has stunted the creativity of TODAY's youth by smouldering the angst-driven rebellious courage that spawns revolution.

[RdHertsUni]

"Giant, monopoly corporations are evil, man." *Sips Starbucks*

Love faux-anti-capitalism.

[genebyegene]

i watch this movie all the time, especially when i feel bad or down or whatever... thx cuz it rocks :)

[togwm]

This movie takes the viewer on a wonderful journey into a creative melting pot of people that become galvanized into life long friends.....I just love this movie!!!

[adrianandshane]

just watched this again this morning. really love it. such a great film. so inspiring.

A+S

[lucidbw]

Art is art no matter what tool you use! To all those folks out who think this is lame and only the real stuff is on Piece by piece all of those graffiti artists are now making money of their art! Progression is respectful in the art world! Open your mind!

[allstarchucktaylrs]

Twist is the man! I just found an ebay auction with actual "Dream TDK" and "Twist" signatures you have to check it out..just search "dream tdk" on ebay and it will come up.

[garrickgreathouse]

To think, where I went to Design school the art teachers would NEVER consider this art. Art is to be hidden from public view, to be pontificated only by the wealthy and educated ONLY!

The ugly people have no business viewing art, let alone creating it! Just look at this movie, no overuse of Helvetica in sight!

[metroplastique]

Beautiful Losers with subtitles in spanish. Please!!!!!!!

[teddyhose]

I set up a screening of this film last night at Doc's Clock in San Francisco, for my lowbrow art meetup group. Everyone loved it, myself included and there were even some tears. A heaping pile of graphic art and artists, made me want to pick up a pen and draw like I haven't felt in a long time.

[RevolverSlap]

Someone needs to upload this.

[dougpowers2]

ESPO is my uncle.

[skateitupable]

espo and templeton are some of my favorite of all times...

[Mooktopia]

some of the gayest lamest shit ever. fuck these hipsters THUG LYFE

[UCPBandrew]

@Mooktopia fuckin right. i dont give a fuck if you can paint a pretty picture as long as you dont try and say its graff. anyone who wants a real graff movie watch piece by piece

[menikmati0]

@UCPBandrew ha, oh man, piece by piece goes HARD. grey kill it. and NORM in the special features!!?? daaamn.

then again ESPO is a fkng legend.

[spd13062]

Thomas Campbell...the man who redefined surf films for much the better....with great jazz and a lovely way with the camera..an artist.

[carambaca]

real sht

[DemetriceKessiner]

this movie was soooooooo amazing I watched it at

[crazyamnesiac]

does anyone have the youtube link of the pepsi ad shown in the movie?

[crazyamnesiac]

does anyone have the youtube link of the pepsi ad shown in the movie?

[MODESTCHIK]

awesome film.

[NBTY4ever]

There is no such thing as a loser. It is a mistaken usage of language. And Ive got the PROOF!

[falconneil]

you guys are insane. If you have files on your computer it's your responsibility to back them up, nobody elses. If you lose them that's not Apple's fault. That's like saying that you lost all of your CDs in a flood, and because you paid for them once Best Buy should give them to you again. It doesn't make any sense.

[BlackandKrome]

to be honest beautiful losers and doing it.

fuck the art its all about the damage

[crappymuffins]

hey, does know the film about a boy with autism and a documentary about his life and creativity. This film reminds me of the other one. i'm trying to find it.

[inkyis]

the trailer is awesome !!!

the movie ok :P

[vigolouis]

I watched another Beautiful Losers about 2-3 years ago. It was a lot of the same stuff, but quite different. And a lot shorter. It was on Vimeo for awhile, but now it's gone. Anyone know what it was?

[skunkwhy]

Youthtopia duh tm

[adrianandshane]

we just watched this film and LOVED IT!!!

[eddiemambo]

What A Great Film. Heard of it for a While But finally have it in my collection. A True Inspiration.

A Fine Example of why NYC will Alwayz be The Place for Hard Core Artists To Dream & Create

NYC ForEver.

[LMGScrew]

i bought this movie on itunes and it is terrible quality! if u own itunes watch the trailer in the itunes store and thats how the hole movie is as i bought it.

[3LARI]

Fuck iTunes, man! Don't pay for anything except the music of bands/singers you respect and who need the funds. iTunes is evil.

[LMGScrew]

trust me i know! i bought a 100's od dollars worth of music and my computer crashed and i lost all my music and they wouldnt refund me or even give me my songs back!!

[3LARI]

fuckin unbelievable. its not like it'd cost them anything. that's like legalised extortion making you pay for what you legally own. what a bunch of bastards.

[LMGScrew]

i know. the only time i buy something off iTunes now is if i cant find it on LimeWire or in stores. that is the only time i buy from them now

[rocco602]

That also happend to Me;but when my computer crashed I went ahead and pulledout my internal hard drive,and made it an external hard drive using parts that I bought @ Frys Electronics!Now its just plug and play with new computer,and still have all my music and pictures! Try It,You wont be disappointed!

[LMGScrew]

yeah thats what ive been doing. i backup all my music on my extra harddrives every two weeks

[rvpsmdsk]

free thinking free art free spirit. buy it now on dvd?

[nowarning]

@rvpsmdsk Can't you just enjoy something good, instead of trying to find reasons why it isn't ?

[skulldrix]

@rvpsmdsk Or steal it. I doubt they would mind if you stole it offline. They just offer it on DVD as an option.

[HxcTufty]

@rvpsmdsk We live in a capitalistic world, nothing can be done without money, even promote free street art, free thinkin and free spirit in general. Cut the crap...

[idntexst]

who sings the song at the begining of the film right after the guy is playing with his harmonica or what ever that thing is called

[jumpyourbone]

this film would have been tolerable

had it been a spoof, like a spinal tap for the contemporary art scene.....

[beautifullosersfilm]

Beautiful Losers now available on DVD! Distributed through Adam Yauchs (MCA of the Beastie Boys) film distribution company Oscilloscope Laboratories.

[jumpyourbone]

no thanks!

[a1579]

nice movie, sad to see how it ultimately became an industry

[eddiemambo]

Artists Need to Make Money.

[666killerninja]

SHIT FILM NR.1

[bhoogren]

Elderly person pwned by fascist graffiti criminals. Fascist thieves painted over her canvas. Canvas she and her deceased husband created together for 80 years.

Gone forever, thanks to sadists.

Sadistic graffiti sociopaths shred her heart with thrill seeking ugly garbage. Fascists stole her canvas. No Christmas for her, for the rest of her life.

What she and her beloved husband gone forever. FOREVER. Thanks to vandals who pervert the meaning of "Artist".

Stop the criminal molestation.

[pidge0tto]

You're using an isolated incident to judge an entire genre of art

[bhoogren]

If the graffiti is authorized by the owner of the canvas I have no problem.

If the canvas is stolen the drawing is a form of decay, as ugly as a infected pus filled sore.

I have a problem with the illegal practitioners of graffiti. I have totally made that clear.

Stop the molestations. Leave innocent people alone. Stop the criminal acts.

[ReservoirDentPie]

why fascists?

[beautifullosersfilm]

Greetings YouTubers! Sorry we've been away for a while but we're back with some great news! Beautiful Losers is coming to DVD December 8th in the US through Adam Yauch's Oscilloscope Laboratories and is currently available for digital download on iTunes! Stay tuned and stay inspired!

[bhoogren]

Graffiti is painting on a canvas that does not belong to you. It is thievery, vandalism and it hurts the canvas owner deeply.

No matter what language gymnastics you play graffiti is a predatory act performed by people who know full well they are breaking the law who do not care one bit about the innocent people they hurt.

It may be necessary to use mental hospital lockups and therapy as appropriate since they cannot control their own impulses.

Then innocent people can be safe.

[SketchReed]

Sir, get a life. If you don't appreciate the art of graffiti, then paint over the walls yourself. Don't just attack the artists and say they are monsters that harm innocent people. We are killing no one with our spray paint.

I would also like to say that if you can show to me exactly how beautifying the community is deserving of being institutionalized--or for that matter, how painting a wall is stealing-- without using "language gymnastics", I will gladly secede you this point.

[bhoogren]

You are your fellow criminals are the ones that need to get a life and stop molesting innocent people and stealing their canvas.

It's not yours. It's that simple.

[SketchReed]

And how are we "molesting innocent people"? How can you even classify us with molesters and the other dirtbags of society..which is who you should be concerned with?

There are real crimes in this world, my friend. There are rapists, there are molesters, there are murderers...those are the ones who deserve prosecution most.

Not the artists.

And by the way, I'm still waiting for you to tell me how beautifying the community is deserving of institutionalization.

[bhoogren]

I've answered in full. Are you listening and understanding?

[Janeal881]

They have the best movie poster!!!!

[pannedcakes]

the original documentary by sartoria comunicazione was a lot more informative and interesting than this version imho, this ones is good, but that was was great

i really hope it's included on the DVD

luckily i saved a copy off the website before they took it down :D i watch it every once in a while when i want to be inspired

[badmojorayman]

Street date is the 1st of December

[eatdogs]

this was a good book too.

[fatsandproductions]

we're screening BL at The Old Music Library in Brighton, UK on Nov 3rd

[BetterThanMan]

I'll be there!

[sausage4231]

hi, if anyone has the whole film, please upload!!

thanx. ;)

[jhrom]

When the hell is this gonna come out on DVD?

[vinceprep]

Out here in Tokyo. Watching in now. Maybe US will follow soon? Weird that it is here first... not usually the case...

[oleedee]

dont see this, its just one big euphoric multi-colored wank with. grow up.

[DieMenschMaschine85]

Cant wait to watch it. Love Harmony Korine'a work.

[jstephensen]

Where can I get this film???

[kleintinkerbell]

when is is it going to be released? or is it already?

[abigailtarttelin]

Saw this last night at bafta house - AMAZING inspiring film! go see it

[karofinne]

what song is it in the end?

[GrahamFoy]

does anyone know where I can download or purchase the song in the trailer?

[annepfirsich]

fantastic!

[banetbau]

This movie influenced me as an artist =D Loved it.

[dougpowers2]

My Uncle Is One Of Those Guy's, (ESPO)

[TheseOpenRoads]

LUCKY

[fredyzpt]

how's it feel to have a graffiti legend as a family member?...I do graffiti and I'm a fan of him

[dougpowers2]

He's Awsome, I Just Wish I Could See Him More

[andygskatin]

Its media from the artist to the artist not from the guy in a suit in tie to the masses.

[xpez]

THE LA COOL KID MARKETING MACHINE...strikes again.

these people love seeing themselves in mags, photo books, videos....me...me ...look at me...look at me..

over and over and over and over........

its SOOOO tiring.

most "dispossessed" artists will never be known because they could sincerely care less about having any media attention - the real underground artists...

[andygskatin]

they didnt ask for that, they proved to people that they can make a life of nothing but art, they are successful artist who wanted to not have a normal job and do what they loved to do, they documented it and now are trying to spread the word that anything is possible, its not like your seeing this on a damn t.v. ad this is 100% underground, ppl dont know who these artist are, artist know who these artist are &thats what matters.

[xpez]

I agree some of the artists profiled here like margaret Kilgarten truly belong in that DIY category

mcfetridge, mills, spike jonze, fairey, have well oiled PR machines pumping out press releases and getting themselved published in everything...

they are like TV celebs..YUK

ONce I was perusing some exotic thick fashion mag with naked french models..halfway through I was forced to look at Mills mug and spike's mug...uugh

I was like "okay..jeeez" I have had enough.

[lithiumpanicval]

esta pelicula me da esperzansas y me inspira gracias

[vans4menu]

this movie moved me, like just awesome shit in this movie.

[kleintinkerbell]

sounds great. i wanna buy it, but its not on amazon

[gamesworkshopdude]

I may be being dumb but I don't know a lot about this film, has it already been released and if so then is it out on dvd or anything or was it own shown at a premiere? If it is for sale then please let me know, I really wanna see it.

[alexguiry]

your not dumb

[meowmikz33]

[Felicitas1990]

Is this movie only on dvd or what?

[Holterhaus]

[franklinubbie]

amazing movie. nothing else to say

[killerbandit]

Awesome movie.

[mrrlazyboi]

anywhere know where to see this film online?

or where to purchase it?

[bebe3175]

Kick ass!!

[bigcambria325]

I wish I could be as good as these beautiful losers. very inspiring film, loved it.

[dannlynch]

I hate it when people call themselves artists.

this movie looks hipster-pretentious to me. like the dude spraypainting 'lets be human beings'. that kind of obvious, spoon fed bullshit means nothing to me.

although in general I think documentaries are a good idea.

[BmoreOutsider4Life]

I think ur a god dam idiot these people have put more to the game than u will ever think, eat a dick

[BmoreOutsider4Life]

u HAAA

[mmyyddddd]

i know what you mean but these people are the people hipsters are trying to act like, these are the real alternative artists before the hipster movement came about, i mean you gotta avoid hating on people who appear to look like hipsters but instead hate hipsters when they act their the shit, when their acting like their these real artist types and other artists arent. these dudes have the same mindset as me when it comes to art, and im a gritty street graff artist type,hipster is my arch enemy

[proceedapathy]

i think your comment is a piece of shit

and i also think you dont consider yourself an artist in any way

but your wrong, you are an artist of pure shit

but thats my opinion and this is yours

i think this film looks interesting and people can be artistic in many forms and expressing that is the best part about being an artist

[patinthehatisfat]

"What We Do Is Secret" is also a skateboarding video about Richmond VA and Washington DC fools. Anyone know what song is used in this trailer?

[bioobird]

absolutely fantastic editing, and a fantasic message too.

i would like to consider myself a beautiful loser :)

[deaddreamer5]

Twist is a fuckin god 2 me..his handstyle is fuckin godsent..plz wen does this movie comes out

[NabilRU]

You're pathetic

Bitch

RING OF LAWL

[verlaines]

The pathetic is overrated.

[cptnunderwhere]

Incredibly, you are a bunch of losers. Imagine that, ZOMG!

[breeders93]

i love this. this helps me define myself. thanx.

[patrickstafford]

If you are interested in this film you might like the film "What We Do Is Secret".

It's about the LA punk band "The Germs".

They're both out in New York right now.

[dontbushitme]

paint on! lol tag the Devils Company whitehouse

[aangroca]

Stuff like this can actually make people think, and find ways to get along.

[UnconcernedCitizen]

Dadaists

[layconick]

Hey dudes! Trailer is fantastic and I'm very sad that with us in Poland will not be able to view the entire movie - but I hope that one day you put this on DVD. Cheers, Marcin!

[notthatbadtoday]

does anyone know who the guy with the tall spikey hair and the yellow shirt is?

[AncientRage2]

Stephen Powers aka Espo

[annartstudent]

wow i'm so excited about this film- it's something people have been needing to see for a long time. I hope once it's released someone sees how great it is and it can show in more cities- My friends and I just missed it screening at the Maryland Film Fest because of exams so I'm determined to see it now!

[noorskie]

this looks amazing, where can i see i though? ive tried netflixin it... i assume its not in normal renty places

[beautifullosersfilm]

Thank you, we really appreciate it.

The reason you haven't been able to find the film on dvd is because it's not out on dvd. We'll be invading theaters this August for a small theatrical run in select cities. We'll keep everyone posted once we have secured our release dates.

[k1ngofmiaea]

i want to see this movie so bad.

so many good artists so many good, but sometimes not understood, things they do

[beautifullosersfilm]

You'll have your chance to check the flick very very soon as North American premieres will be starting to drop.

And yes, many of the artists in the film are often misunderstood (as are lot's of others in general) but thats what helps give them their unique perspectives and allows them to create whatever they can.

Thanks for supporting the scene!

[DRKO666]

Aw man so excited to see this.  We need more celebrations of free form creative thought. The clip that starts the trailer says it perfectly. Thanks for pushing these things out.

[beautifullosersfilm]

Hey thanks for checking out our little trailer. We totally agree with you, the creative spirit in all of us should be exercised as often as possible. In fact we're working with many artists right now to lend their creativity in teaching kids how to make their own stuff. More to come on that soon!

[angelaf123]

very very very cool!!!!

[beautifullosersfilm]

Thank you very very very much!!!!!

[isiahdegu]

OBEY and the beautiful loser blazers

is that what the blazers are based on??

[beautifullosersfilm]

Nike created a limited run of Blazers with the words "Beautiful Losers" on the back of the shoes to commemorate the traveling art show of the same name back in 2005. Our movie represents some of the artists featured in that show and subsequent book. Not sure what you mean in reference to OBEY and the Blazers though, sorry.

[isiahdegu]

oh no haha i didnt mean anything by the obey thing sorry ahha but yeah i was just saying obey cause i saw it my bad but yeah i wanna watch this!!

[joshcaple]

yeh nice! are we gonna see this one down under??

[beautifullosersfilm]

I really hope we can make it down to you. The director of the film, Aaron Rose, recently had a small screening at the Monster Children Gallery in Sydney. Hopefully the next time it will be a much larger event! You can also check out our official website for more info. (click our link for the address)

[JackSzwergold]

Very nice!

[beautifullosersfilm]

Thanks! We put our hearts and souls into this film and it's nice to see people enjoying it as much as we enjoyed making it!

[w4rtct8oz]

is it going bee in 08

[beautifullosersfilm]

Hopefully the film will be out in theaters across America this summer and out on dvd by the end of the year. You can check the Beautiful Losers site from our youtube channel for upcoming screenings and more info!

[damagedjournal3]

Chris Johanson rules.

[beautifullosersfilm]

Seriously! Chris, along with his lovely wife Jo Jackson and our fearless director Aaron Rose, will be at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, MN this coming May 2nd to screen the film and give a talk as well. There will be 2 screenings that Friday, one at 7pm and the other at 9:30pm.

Please check the Walker Art Center site for more info.

[MathTeamVids]

is there a website with a list of theaters this will be hitting? i'm sure the ann arbor, mi area would love to see this. i know i would.

[mickymcnasty]

will this me coming out in the uk? it would be so cool if it did!

[beautifullosersfilm]

It would be definitely cool if BL came to the UK as there are many fans of these artists as well as a very creative community out there, and not just in the art world. We're hoping for a summer release stateside so maybe the UK and the rest of Europe around the same time? Fingers crossed!

[armisaeal]

I want to see this movie. Will it come out in DVD? Im in NC by the way..

[beautifullosersfilm]

Hopefully the movie will be reaching you in North Carolina. Possibly as early as this summer even, that is if distribution deals get done in time. The DVD should be hitting by the end of the year though.

[ROMANS10x13]

ive seen this trailer before and i want to see the movie!

[beautifullosersfilm]

As of right now we're currently playing film festivals in North America. But hopefully you'll be seeing the movie as soon as this summer in a limited theatrical release. You can check our website for more info and updates. Thanks for your interest!

[automataTV]

south america?

please, come to the south!!!

[beautifullosersfilm]

We would of course love to come visit our southern neighbors and screen the film anywhere we can in South America. We hope it will be possible in the near future. We shall keep you posted.

[automataTV]

that´s great!!!

BL are the most inspirating act in the contemporary art!!

greetings from Guayaquil - Ecuador

[Baxisban]

I Love you Stephen Powers:)

[beautifullosersfilm]

We love Steven Powers too! If only we can all grow our hair as high as ESPO's...

[huzzieles]

que llege el film a chile!

[beautifullosersfilm]

Optimistamente la película estará en teatros este verano en Chile. Veremos...

Muchas gracias!

[KTHarHar]

I love the guy that paints the square thing, because even he is like "I have no idea why I did this, I just did." That is the best kind of art in my eyes

[beautifullosersfilm]

That guy is Chris Johanson and he is quite a character in the film. His thoughts on his process and how he creates are very interesting to say the least. Thanks for checking us out!

[KTHarHar]

I'd really like to see the movie someday. Have you though about putting it on DVD or something?

[beautifullosersfilm]

Deals are currently being worked on to get the film distributed world wide as soon as this summer. Japan has already secured their premiere this summer with the US and the rest of the world hopefully coming soon! Either way, the DVD should be out by the end of the year.

[KTHarHar]

Yay!! I can't wait!
