Full Plot Details

It begins in 1979 with the chance meeting in a Salt Lake City parking lot where filmmaker Trent Harris is approached by an earnest small-town dreamer from Beaver, Utah. Harris jumps at the chance when the young man invites him to come to the small town of Beaver to film a talent show. At the show, the man dons black leather, blond wig and performs in drag as Olivia Newton John. Harris captures it all on tape. What unfolds is a strange, funny, and ultimately poignant portrait of a true outsider. Not willing to let the story go, Harris then created a dramatic piece, "Beaver Kid 2" based on the documentary. This interpretation, shot in 1981 on a home video camera with a budget of $100, features the young Sean Penn as the Beaver Kid re-enacting the same scenario. Still possessed, Harris then rewrote the script, cast Crispin Glover in the lead, and in 1985 created the final segment, "Orkly Kid" as an American Film Institute project. The three pieces were re-edited, compiled, and finally screened at the Lincoln Center in New York City in July of 2000. Beaver Trilogy unveils the inner world of a fantastic character compelled to hide, yet at the same time, tell the world about his secret life.

User Review - 10/10 by Steph CSo weird, and so great. Being from small town Utah totally hits close to home.
User Review - 10/10 by Wisteriax GTrent Harris is brilliant. Here is the proof.
User Review - 10/10 by Sonya WThere were three stages that I went through while watching the movie. 1. What the fuck is this 2. this is perhaps the most mean spirited movie I have ever seen, and it kicks ass 3. What the fuck is this...this is the most mean spirited movie I have ever seen and it kicks ass...and it is making me believe again. A million thumbs up. See it if you can. (odds are you can't)
User Review - 10/10 by Private UAmong the most unique documents in cinema history.
User Review - 10/10 by Matthew RThis film was not originally conceived as a trilogy and you can feel each of its three individual parts falling short of the director's obsessive hopes. However, when they are put together in this trilogy they collectively become an absolute masterpiece and one of the most inventive documentaries ever made.
User Review - 10/10 by Sabrina MThis is a classic. I love Sean Penn's version. LOL
User Review - 10/10 by Meg TGary said it best during his Olivia Newton-Don impression: "I love you channel two, I hope you need me, too." Both sides of the camera are getting what they need in The Beaver Kid. I couldn't actually finish watching Sean Penn's performance after seeing Crispin Glover completely embody that character. He seems to think he's in an SNL skit, whereas Glover understands the humanity of what's happening during the talent show in Beaver and clearly has great love for the eccentric Gary. Beaver's Rich Little just wants to make people laugh, and maybe dress up like a woman now and then. It's hard not to be thrilled when you encounter a person being true to themselves.
User Review - 10/10 by Adam CI'm so glad that I finally got to see this!
User Review - 10/10 by James SWow, quite the "film" to wrap your head around. Very enjoyable!
