The house is innocent


I thought this film was great. I love how it uses humor to make light of murders. I had never heard of the murders or of this house before but it was really cool to learn about. I thought it was really funny that he put up signs that talked for the house and how when he took them down the people wanted him to keep them up. It was really funny and really interesting to see how this couple handled the past of the house and I think it is awesome that they did what they did with the signs and the props.

Reclamation


I really like this film a lot. When the Dakota Access Pipeline was in full forced we learned a lot about it in school. We got to see a lot of the different sides of the story but never really got to hear in depth the story of the people who lived on the land. It was very interesting to get to see and hear from the people that lived there and protested there. And it was amazing to see so many young people leading the movement and pushing forward. This film was very emotional and really brought light to how awful this issue is and how even though there were small victories there is still so much work to be done. I think a lot of people have forgotten about the pipeline but this film really shows that we cannot forget about this issue.


My Dead Dad's porno tapes


My Dead Dads Porno Tapes was a really interesting film. It grabbed my attention and I thought that it was done in a super cool way. I liked how he interview his siblings and his mother and how he used the white background with the props in a stop motion sort of way. It was different than what I thought it was going to be but I really enjoyed it. I liked the mix of old versus new footage and it was sprung a ton of different emotions. It was really humorous but also deep and heavy at some points. Even though it was about his dad who was passed, it was still a lighthearted film.
