Subject: 40 year old pie fight ?
maybe some deja vu might bring this into the 21st century.

Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market.... CCOF pies are high flight due to Lagier's new recipe.

Well, at some points the movie lets the event be seen as a really big thing, but of course it was nothing more than a big stupid joke.
There's not much story about it all, but the pie fight is really funny, nearly so good as in the ''Fight for your right to party'' music video by the Beastie boys. Well, the music in this ''documentary'' doesn't fit really, but it gives the movie a very strange feeling.
Not bad at all.
