Tasty Mystery Baskets of Clips
Thierry owned a vintage clothing store
So who is this guy?
We were right in the middle of putting the show together,
Myself and my girlfriend, Sonja, went down there,
and I'll tell you a pile...
NARRATOR: With over4,000 people flowing through the venue,
That's good. That's good.
I'm running the show.
- Hi. Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you too.
and he goes to here, he goes there,
I couldn't let it down, ever.
I think was a little premature.
Yeah, it's very nice, this one.
Anything you want.
and we figured out what he needed
NARRATOR: Originally booked to run for just five days,
and it was kind of suspense,
NARRATOR: Back in L.A.,
of trusted friends
[sneaky music]
Ты monster Malakak
and, you know, with, like, long legs
and he came round my house and put the DVD on,
It's impossible, but how am I gonna make it?
NARRATOR: The endorsements
I brought in three of my staff members
an it says, Bat Papi, 1893.
in an apparent statement about how easy it is
Can I talk to you for a second?
on home turf.
Put them in any order in the room.

those left outside
but life is a chess game for me.
NARRATOR: Outside, the first eager art fans
Thierry, along with half of Hollywood.
or Mr. Brainwash, as he was now calling himself,
like he would use the video camera.
[can clinks]
And you fractured it right through here,
For fuck's sake, I printed it.
And I said, I really like that guy.
Trippy.
using stickers, stencils, posters, and sculptures
turned the show into an event.
Yeah, man, I do.
But I would never watch it.
I see this particular one
It comes to a point that I got accepted.
You can't do that here.
And then I walked off one way
And he goes, and he start... put it in.
I always avoided cameras,
I didn't ask him; I just filmed.
but I even delete it when you guys came to me.
Okay. I'll make him.
I haven't seen group shows with that much artwork.
they were so happy.
It's full of pictures,
Why don't you go and do it now?
but I don't know what to do with them.
It's because everything that I do
These reports are coming back
this is probably my last MBW show I'll be working.
Aaaagh!
And I just do it to... I don't know...
I lost my mother when I was 11 years old,
[metallic thud]
But that's one out of four, five, six.
and fate remained on Thierry's side
private collectors had begun to inquire
Mr. Brainwash had arrived.
with these, like, huge sideburns, sweating,
One guy is behind me; two guys behind me;
He was not only a filmer,
Yeah, yeah, there is Banksy here, and...
and thousands of hours of material
and he takes time,
No.
But me, I wanted to meet the guy,
I was taking pictures, and things like this.
and start to glue?
is a slight oxymoron, I think.
Like I saw in Banksy's show,
Like, what I say:
of filming everything
Maybe it means art is a bit of a joke.
It's not about the hype.
So I ask Space Invader.
of controversy, celebrity, and the painted elephant
and I wasn't lying about that.
but when people were asking me what this guy's doing,
# Tonight the streets are ours #
Do you think that people is gonna wait and wait
Now is the time.
NARRATOR: After ten months of Thierry's constant presence,
Like, he goes, and he, like...
[speaks indistinctly]
were a little bit confused as to how that would happen, you know?
Oh.
the question inevitably arose:
NARRATOR: But Banksy's close-knit team
[gasps]
Can you guys form a straight line to the right, please?
stopped even noticing his ever-present camera,
It's gonna have bars here.
so I rung a few people
I don't know what it means,
