So time to write movie reviews… it’s been a very long time since I have written anything for my blog so here it goes.
For shoot week on top of all the shooting and assignments the other students and I had, we got to sit back and watch a few photo related movies. During what would normally be class time we were issued movie passes and set out on some popcorn popping and movie watching. We were told that 3 movies were the minimum to see, so with no question I chose I Am Cuba, One Hour Photo, and Manufactured landscapes.
The movie extravaganza started Tuesday with “I Am Cuba”. Sitting in the DT room not sure what to expect but excited to see what it would entail because it sounded quite interesting and I was looking forward to seeing it. So it started, I thought to myself hmm its in black and white that’s cool. The movie is set in
It was a double bill for Wednesday, as I was seeing One Hour Photo and Manufactured Landscapes after that. So to start off the morning I had already seen One Hour Photo but I thought why not see it again as odd as it was the first time…why not!! It stars the amazingly funny Robin Williams but for this movie put on the serious role. I didn’t take this movie too seriously it was the fun movie out of the three, I did find it interesting and had a straight urge to work in a photo lab after seeing it. Lol as well as not taking my family photos to a one hour place. The part of the movie I think I found most interesting was near the end where you could see the films color was getting darker and more serious in a way, the tones were getting richer and richer and the movie was getting more suspenseful.
Last but not least Manufactured Landscapes I really didn’t get this one, it had its interesting moments and it wasn’t bad considering it is a documentary. I thought it would have been quite different though. It was about I believe Chinese workers who were working in factories, ship-breaking yard in
