My brief commentary on two movies seen this year. (I would have included Kontroll, but I already reviewed it.)
-Rear window (seen in STAC): Great story, nice acting, and many beautiful shots. However, the plot moved slowly at times (we were discussing this in class, and this may be because of the style of the time...but I got a bit antsy while watching the beginning, which is odd because I'm used to slow movies.)
-Lincoln(seen outside of STAC): A good period piece, they really captured how dim things were eithout electricity, but the language was hard to understand at points... They did a good job at making a movie centered aroundthe passing of a bill be not as dull as it sounds.
(Also, it was odd to see Lincoln as a person...it shows how much you've learned about history when you didn't even know that Mr. Lincoln had children!)
