God's to God, Caesar's to Caesar

I saw someone in the short comment area say that this film is actually a little bit of a complaint from Banksy, and I think this comment is very interesting.
God's to God, Caesar's to Caesar.
What I did was originally something that did not seek fame and fortune, so why be dissatisfied with the fame and fortune of others in the end?
Different road non-phase plan.
banksy himself said that the reason he let thierry shoot him is to tell the world that everything he does is not for fame and fortune, but to express what he has in mind.
Finally, he did.
In fact, all this should not be blamed on thierry, I think he is the most innocent person in the whole incident.
If fairey is to say, he is not qualified enough.
Who the hell did this joke? fairey asked himself. Certainly not thierry, not a banksy, so why did everything turn out like this?
banksy attributes it all to luck, but he also says that art itself has no rules. Maybe thierry is really a genius.
Maybe.
Maybe everyone is a genius.
If the criterion for judging whether an artwork is good or bad is defined as the amount of information it contains. Then thierry is obviously not a good artist.
If the criteria for judging the quality of artworks are defined as the degree of impact and acceptance on people, then thierry wins.
In fact, what banksy did was not a kind of blasphemy and plagiarism of other people's works?
But he conveys a certain thought, which is what differentiates him from thierry.

In the documentary, banksy asked thierry to repeatedly emphasize: I put all my belongings into it! I don't know if this will work!
Completely shaped the image of a speculator.
And I'm curious if banksy deliberately avoided a detail, that is, in nearly a year, has banksy not seen any of Thierry's works? Even banksy once sent a familiar promoter to help thierry, without knowing any of his works?
If we're selling a bold one, assuming banksy actually presumably knows what thierry's work looks like, why didn't he tell his good friend thierry before the show that your work has no value and is simply to you Plagiarism by previous street artists?
okay, assuming their relationship has deteriorated by that time, or banksy has warned thierry, and sent the promoter just to help thierry hope he doesn't go bankrupt, then thierry's huge success makes banksy a little regretful.
So he made a documentary, hoping to get it back.
The entire documentary reveals his and fairey's self-appreciation.
In fact, thierry is very simple. If his exposition is a mistake, it is not an exaggeration to say that banksy is behind the scenes. Without Banksy, Thierry would not have gone to America at all, and this exhibition would not have been possible at all.
The narrator said that this was originally Banksy's tune-in. Fortunately, he also achieved his goal. As for thierry's inexplicable popularity, it's just a side effect.
banksy and thierry are not friends at all. Their relationship was never reciprocal.
For him, thierry is just a useful assistant, a tool that can be used, just like the thousands of hours of footage he shot, and the last edited film did not have any of his name on it.
The film he made was thrown away like rubbish, maybe it was rubbish itself, so banksy could say naked in the documentary he edited:
"Actually it's rubbish, but I hate to say it because it can be hurtful. But really, it's rubbish."
Do you think others will praise your kindness for it? God,

finally, I also appreciate thierry's attitude. He did not "enjoy the success of mbw" like in the end of the film, he said very seriously that he would use his life to prove that he is not a speculator. Whether successful or not, he really wants to create art and wants to be recognized by others.
Is this wrong?

Perhaps the only thing wrong is the poor judgment of the media and the blind public.
Oh no, there are also banksy and fairey, I don't understand why you promote a work you don't agree with, and then regret saying that others have used your promotion inappropriately. What is improper use? Is this just your subjective expression?

By the way, I actually like thierry's work. I also went to see his exhibition in Beijing. For my age, it was quite shocking.
