Informal, rambling, personalized documentary by Darryl Roberts (director, producer, narrator, and on-screen presence) on America’s presumed “obsession” with beauty, a wide-ranging skim over interesting waters: the fashion industry (specifically an underage model named Gerren Taylor), dieting, eating disorders, beauty products, cosmetic surgery, the whole ball of wax. The slovenly film itself, a pasty digital transfer, is plainly not caught up in the mania. (2008) — Duncan Shepherd
