Adam Curtis- Bitter Lake (Patreon)
Content
I am not sure if any you have seen this but this is one of, if not my favourite documentary's, I only found this film because I have had a few people compare my work to this film maker and after that I sought him out and usually I think FUCK YOU what an insult but I saw this guys film and I loved it and have watched it numerous times. It didn't influence me in any way because I have my own style Im comfortable with but I did see a lot of similarities, on being how he takes found footage and links it with music to give a darker meaning. Some scenes actually brought me to tears, like a ballet that jumps from some arab kids show to blood on a camera lens from a terrorists bomb.
I have mentioned many times that I am not a political person in any way, so I have hearing shit about conspiracy theories or people on any rants whether Trump or Hillary or Boris it generally bores me but I feel this film, whether you agree is a beautiful pice of art and felt it was a compliment to be compared to.
Try to stick with it for 15 minutes, it may seem odd to you but give it a go. The soundtrack alone is beautiful. Let me know what you think. People often ask what I enjoy watching, this is what I like to watch in bed at night with a glass of red wine, I have Autism so I tend to watch things over and over again and this is one of those things that soothes me.
