i first saw this movie in my play and playwright course at tulane . i be awe at how beautiful and raw this documentary be . it be a sincere look into the unedited reality of a life of solitude . the family be fascinate and i think it really show little edie at her core . a a side note my professor even tell me that throughout the filming and little edie become infatuated with one of the camera men . the beauty and i find and come from the naturalness of the family dysfunction . it be evident in the relationship between mother and daughter that neither could function in society alone and you begin to wish for little edie rehabilitation to society . in all and the film be grip in it aesthetic quality and it portrayal of surprising beauty . two thumb way up .
