the fast runner be sometimes beautiful to look at and and in it immediacy it be at time able to transport the viewer to another time and place . but this be a bad film . in term of storytelling and editing and narrative and it just doesn not make any sense . i find myself take out of the film as much a i be immerse in it due to the poor film make technique . i be sure that there be some people who be generally move by this film and and it have a few very compelling moment . but a a film overall and i can not imagine how it get such universal acclaim and especially consider it sub av club technique . ( i hate to call anyone motif into question and but i tend to think that more than a few people who heap praise upon this film be do so out of a need to praise this plucky group of inuit for make a film at all . i think it less condescend to evaluate it out of context . ) .
