-- Trailer: Dimitri The Lover
Trailer: Dimitri The Lover
YES HE IS THE REAL DEAL LOL.
If you've ever heard his infamous message he left for Olga, you would love to see this movie. I know I am! He's making a movie and looks to be pretty good. Filmed in Toronto, this documentary looks interesting.
Here's the original message from a few years ago if you don't know what I'm talking about.
Phone Message

Wow! I was actually thinking about that voicemail a few days ago. LOL
I remember hearing the original message on a radio show last year, and had no idea what it was. I'm definitely gonna get a good laugh out of this.

| There are any number of ways to imagine a movie based on the life and (many, many) loves of Toronto�s crackpot Casanova Dimitri the Lover. You could make it a contemporary Frankenstein fable where a bolt of lightning animates a crusty splooge stain into some slimy T-1000 sexual predator. You could cast Gerard Butler in the lead and have our loathsome lothario get a harsh lesson in romance by some obstinate Sandra Bullock type. Hell, you could throw Jay Baruchel or Michael Cera in there and have the D-Man teach them how to wheedle their way into the prom queen�s panties. Or you could get Brad Goodman, the producer behind Sacha Baron Cohen�s mock-docs Borat and Br�no, on board to help give Dimitri�n� James Sears�the docutainment treatment he deserves. That�s right, gang: Dimitri the Lover is getting the Hollywood treatment! And considering all the digital breadcrumbs of misogyny, harassment, and greaseball inanity that he�s left since we all caught a whiff of his Aqua Velva�scented stench, there�s no dearth of material for a feature-length film on Dimitri's pervy sexcapades. While Goodman (who also worked on Bill Maher�s snarky 2008 doc Religulous) teased the movie a while ago on a YouTube channel he set up to promote the project, he was kind enough to correspond with Torontoist via e-mail to talk about the film in detail. Though details at this point are scant�no word on a release date or distributor�it seems as if Goodman and filmmaker Rob Bryton are poised to capture the sleazy charisma of the Hogtown pickup artist we all love to hate. It should be enough to slate the thirst of salivating Dimitri fans, at least until the movie itself (or his still yet-to-be-released book, appallingly titled Mein Kock) sees release. Torontoist: How did you hear about Dimitri? What made him such a compelling subject for this documentary? Brad Goodman: Director Rob Bryton started filming the Dimitri The Lover documentary in June�July 2008 while I was in post on Religulous and Br�no. Rob is also a musician and his team was working with me on some music cues for Religulous. He mentioned the Dimitri film to me, and it piqued my curiosity. I did a little research about Dimitri, including his controversial past and his current role in the Toronto seduction community. I also discovered that Dimitri had tried to pick up my friend's wife (she said he was very charming) and he had left a business card version of his seduction poster on some of my friends' cars in Toronto. Then, after viewing some of the raw footage it was clear he would make a good subject, so I asked Rob if I could be involved in producing it with him. I do find it interesting when people have a �following.� And whether the person is a politician, priest, rock star, or even a demented cult leader, I am fascinated with people who have that kind of charisma. How did you approach him about the project? Was he at all suspicious? He seems very guarded about how he wants to be presented in the media. Actually, that part of project was underway before I officially jumped on board. Rob and Dimitri spoke about doing an impartial movie about Dimitri�s story and Dimitri agreed. Dimitri is guarded with reporters because he doesn�t trust the media, especially in Toronto, and wanted someone other than the press to help tell his story in an unbiased and unfiltered way. Considering your work on films like Borat and Br�no, how did you approach this real-deal social provocateur? Is the same sense of humour required to "get" Dimitri? I have to say that at first I thought �Dimitri The Lover� was a hoax, a persona invented by a very clever guy with a warped sense of humour. It was quite obvious that Dimitri was very clever, but I ruled out that it was a hoax months ago, blaming my doubts on my proximity to [Borat and Br�no director] Larry Charles for most of the past few years. But beyond that, there really isn�t a huge connection between those films and the Dimitri project. The only exceptions are his voice mails to Olga. I�m on the fence about whether those are real or not. Some of the things Dimitri says and does are humorous, but we didn�t set out to make a comedy. Dimitri is naturally funny, and Rob captured that aspect of him. None of it is forced or staged for humour for other reasons. Dimitri feels that he can help men meet women, and given his past it makes for interesting conversation about how he (or anyone else) is qualified to give relationship advice. |
