Wasted opportunity
Perhaps his father's fame opened up a door of opportunity for L.T. but oh how the son dropped the ball when he entered the real world of South Africa. His subdued, subtle "outrage", directed naively because of his wimpiness towards many of the people interviewed, made watching this a waste of time. (Actually I bailed out after a third of it because of it's falseness.) If they ever make another version of "Being There", L.T. would be a perfect Chauncey Gardner.) Bottom line for me? He was lucky he had some high echelon protection otherwise he would have been mugged and robbed early on. There is a powerful and tragic story to be told of a country that has, or had until recently, the 2nd highest murder rate per capita in the world...... and the number 1 per capita rape history but the victims seen in the video needed someone like Frederic Wiseman to record what's happening to them in Johannesburg, not a virginal poseur like Louis Theroux.
