Documentaries about simple people with a passion for whatever are often cosy and lighthearted, making the audience want to share the subject’s passion, at least to a degree, and at least for a while. But that always hinges on the liveability of the person portrayed, and how well they can convince you about the awesomeness of model trains/bird watching/origami/whathaveyou. As the subject in One ticket please is rather annoying, not relatable at all and don’t really seem to enjoy the theatre, the documentary fails to enthuse, and thus falls flat.
