Why can't we be a family again?



     This is yet another documentary, which is also based in New York. There are a couple of shots that are from the feet up, or of just the legs, which are pretty cool. The shots are of people dancing, walking, kind of like to show that they are higher than others because they are working hard to no tbe pulled down. The people in the shots are of kids that have some problems with their families. There is one shot when the mom and her mother and grandmother are sitting there, and one of the lights is shining brightly in the middle of the shot. It looks kind of like you are looking at things through a drug ged up haze. There is another great shot of the mother, Kitten, crying, after both of her kids telling her and letting her know that they are disappointed in her. This segment was about emotions felt. From the shots and lighting used, and the story that's told, this is conveyed.


     So, until next time--
