Last year Winnebago
Man,
a documentary about the real life guy behind a YouTube sensation, was a
big hit at SXSW. Now it’s coming to theaters this summer and it has a
trailer that’s NSFW if you’re listening on speakers – see, the Winnebago
Man is a guy shooting an infomercial for Winnebagos and really, really
losing his temper. Again and again.
I can’t wait to see this movie.

This movie is amazing. I wrote about it on my blog here a little while ago: /articles/blogs/1889/Slow-Motion-Quick-Draw-79-a-Winnebago-Man.html
Awesome. Never seen these youtube pieces. Love how he always seems to have a laugh brewing just behind the outbursts.
Ha! That looks great!
This is how a star is fucking born.
This is awesome for two reasons: this is awesome on it's own and I work for Winnebago. Will have to tell the folks at work.
Ben Steinbauer teaches at the film school at UT. I took a class he taught in that very same room with all the the laughing students. He's a great teacher and a great guy and I'm glad to see him get some recognition.
sometimes it takes a lifetime for a bad day to turn into a life's work..
He should make sure he gets paid by those vultures. Getting laughed at by hipsters doesn't pay the bills.
Might be funny though – most likely tragic.
