Movie Day

Last Thursday I saw a movie that followed two friends as they started to build up a business from the ground up.  With limited experience and knowledge about the workings of businesses, I had naturally found this movie confusing.  I felt that through watching this movie, I was expected to understand the steps/process in building a business.  In the beginning, it felt like there were hints about this, such as when the Kaleil was deciding on what his company would do and furthermore, what he should call it.  It seemed like many meetings were required.  Also, everyone seemed to develop roles quickly.  It was apparent from the start that Kaleil would lead the company as CEO.  However, as the movie progressed, it was more and more difficult to follow along.  It seemed that there were many processes that needed to be considered in creating a company, such as dealing with legal issues.  The movie focused mainly on the conversation and arguments that occurred around those issues, and vaguely seemed to cover the actual problem and its resolution.  It seemed to me that this was because it was, after all, a movie (or perhaps I should call it a documentary), and there is entertainment value in showing dialogue.  But, I feel that overall, despite that much of the content showed speeches, arguments, and conflicts, the movie still gave valuable insight on some of inner-workings of a company and also showed that being an entrepreneur is a risky, but potentially rewarding experience.
