Titicut+Follies

That's right: there's no assigned reading for this week's film. Enjoy. However, there will be class discussion, beginning with a wrap-up of our talk about //Grey Gardens// and style, which should then segue into a discussion of Wiseman's film, done as well in a "direct cinema" manner.

What sorts of 'readings' can you give to //Titicu//t //Follies////?// Although there's not much story (it's about this place and these people but not in a linear, cause-effect way), there is style. What do you make of this style? Can you imagine choosing such a style for a documentary you are making? What are the shortcomings/advantages?
