NANOOK OF THE NORTH



What are 2 things that the filmmaker did that are controversial? Why were they? Do you think the film was "authentic" after reading this article? Why are why not? Why is this film so famous?

The filmmaker staged some of the scenes which made them seem fictional. I think some of the film was authentic but I feel like most of it was what the director wanted to see rather than what the Inuits actually did in their every day lives. It was very famous because it was different from other films. This supposedly depicted people who didn't conform to western society in their natural habitats and that was strange to most people. It was like going to a zoo.
