剧情简介：

已被迪士尼收购的科学频道播出的纪录片，这部纪录片曝光了奈特-沙马兰(《鬼眼》导演)很多鲜为人知的秘密。该片播出后，沙马兰通过其经纪人表示了强烈的不满，随后科学频道也为此专门做了道歉，可见这部纪录片里猛料之多。

Though The Buried Secret of M. Night Shyamalan is basically entertaining throughout (if a little long), it's difficult to really take the movie seriously since we have no idea what's based in reality. Foster's screenplay places the emphasis on several key events in Shyamalan's life, associating them with various themes in his movies (ie the significance of water in Unbreakable and Signs). Given that Shyamalan supposedly almost drowned as a child, this is the sort of connection that's impossible to deny. But the revelation is undermined by the realization that the whole thing could just be an invention of the film's screenplay, something that's just as applicable to every other intriguing bit of info offered up by Kahn.

The bottom line is that there's really no reason for The Buried Secret of M. Night Shyamalan to even exist, primarily because it can't be classified a documentary due to the fictional elements nor is it engaging enough to work as a mockumentary (ie A Mighty Wind). The presence of a few humorous moments - including a bizarre interview with Johnny Depp - sort of elevates things, albeit briefly, though it's impossible to shake the feeling of irrelevance that surrounds the film.
