Nanook Fake Fake Fake...

Wow! Who knew; reality TV back in the day. As of today, I haven't seen the film. I was surprised to read the notes of the journal assignment. I am eager to see what this is all about.

This man that created this film was ahead of his time. We watch these all the time now. Reality shows are very popular now. I'm sure half the garbage on these shows is fake. More and more we are exposed to these people that are "drama queens". We are to believe that its normal for people to sleep with there husband's brother and their cousins. Sweet sixteen parties are now twenty thousand dollar extravigansas and if you don't have one there must be something wrong with you.

I have to wonder why "Nanook" was made to be false. Was their life not exciting enough? I think because the creator went into the project with his own ideas in mind of how these people were suppose to live and found out that they didn't fit his mold. Therefore; he made them into the "show" he wanted to portrait of eskimo life.
