Prison In Twelve Landscapes

The film Prison in Twelve Landscapes was very interesting to me. I felt that it was a good documentary as it informed the audience on a subject they may know vary little about. I was definitely surprised by how little I know about United States incarceration. I believe that the audience's reaction is very important to a film, maybe the most important. The people in the audience definitely reacted to the kew knowledge they were getting from the film. I for one was shocked and amazed, for a lack of a better word, at how the prison system was displayed. The film displayed a new reality but new is not really the right word perhaps a hidden reality is a better fit. I really enjoyed the script of the film, it was awkwardly beautiful. I do not believe that it fit very well but it was very thought out. It also left me confused at times because the words did not feel as they belonged for that scene. I really enjoyed the film more than the white sun because I had a better frame of reference but  I learned more from the film White Sun than I did in this film.
