Excellent but underrated film

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

A lot of documentaries and movies have dealt with this issue on beauty these days but this documentary deals with the idea of beauty in a broader sense in a specific field. Such a unique way to perceive a beauty allows the audience to understand what it looks like to live as a model who always has to look good and be in shape in order to keep their job. Throughout the documentary including a bunch of interviews with models, plastic surgeon, and make-up artists, I found myself questioning the real meaning of beauty. This documentary really makes you think about what it really means to be beautiful as a human being and how a definition of a beauty has been limited to a body image and physical appearance in general these days. What I also really liked was a unique technical aspect of this film, which was very natural and honest as they try to talk about beauty, which is considered to be perfect. I would highly recommend this film to not only all the women who struggle with a body image but to anyone whether male, female, young or old who is ever looked in the mirror and not liked what they saw.

Great job Brent!!! **** Very engaging**** I loved how the movie was sincere, bold, genuine & educational. The movie exposes a raw truth for males & females; about how great & hard the climb to being a model is. I learned a few things involving the extremes models are willing to go through to fight their hunger or keep a certain size. One model didn't get her "period" until her twenties because she was so thin. I didn't know that was possible. This movie gave really good insight to the beauty industry. With every dream you face risks & other options to take but it's up to us to keep moving in a good direction. I'm looking forward to Brent's next movie. ~G

Chasing Beauty was an honest and real look into what the modeling world is really like. Sometimes it's amazing. Sometimes it's crazy. Sometimes it totally sucks. Sometimes it's really weird. Sometimes it's all luck and timing. There are so many factors that make a model a success or not and it often has little to do with looks and beauty. At the end of the day, we are all "Chasing Beauty". I love the honesty and purity of this film's message. It wasn't all dark and drama, nor was it all glam and glitz. It's informative. It's factual. And it's quite funny! To everyone out there who wants to be a model, you want to watch this. And to everyone else, you'll still enjoy this film. Kudos to the Chasing Beauty Film Team!

I just had the opportunity to see Chasing Beauty at the Houston screening...so happy I did! Finally a modeling/fashion documentary that covers some different and surprising stories from the modeling business. Chasing Beauty was a harder hitting look than I went in expecting. I don't want to give anything away, but there were unexpected story lines to say the least. Brent Huff did such a fantastic job in giving the audience access to BOTH sides of a crazy business, the good and the bad. It was a fair look into that world. The doc was fast paced and very well done. I look forward to seeing it again when it comes out.
