      Yes, yes, film critics have raved about “The Sneeze” for fifty years. It was director Rowena Shoemaker’s “bold statement of commitment” to the Observational Cinema ideal.
      Yet, several times, this same film shamelessly resorts to unnatural voice over rather than finding the cinematic truth of the moment. Was that the “rough edges of the avant-garde” showing through… or rank hypocrisy?
      Frankly, considering the aesthetic shambles that was her follow up film, _Fun Projects In Home Economics,_ I wouldn’t be surprised if she just forgot to edit it out.

      @AGirlofYesterday 3 года назад +29

      @@dmrr7739 Fascinating observations about Shoemaker's courageous quest for realism, yet I disagree that there is auteuristic hypocrisy afoot in "Setting Up a Room."
      Clearly, the male voiceover narration is an inentional motif used to contrast the female-centric foreground action with a meta sense of inescapable destiny. A voice of god, if you will, symbolizing the ladies are trapped in the confines of the very room they seek to control.
      The sneeze reminds us that the women are being watched, judged, caged-- their only recourse to move small furniture around. Profound.

With just myself and 30 minutes I unfortunately did not get the clay out of the buckets and I had no time to set up a woodworking area.

But I'm not sure if Anne Hathaway would be good enough to be playing the younger, but seriously attractive teacher, but it'd be worth a shot at watching, at least once. Probably not as exciting as we'd all want it to be, but I can imagine it winning something at least, and maybe making somewhat less boring(besides this entire riff by itself, I mean).
