Dragonslayer: Movie Review

12:38 PM PDT 3/23/2011 by John DeFore

The documentary about the unglamorous side of pro skateboarding wowed the jury at South by Southwest.

AUSTIN — An unromantic look at the life of a pro skateboarder, Dragonslayer lets its subject speak for himself even when his words and behavior tend to counteract the filmmakers' apparent affection for him. Beautifully photographed at times and unique in its perspective, the doc, which won two top prizes at SXSW, may have a modest appeal beyond the skate community.
