Last night I went to the cinema to watch 'Beasts of the Southern wild' an American fantasy drama film from the Sundance film festival. Which is about a little girl and her father who live in the Mississippi swamps, referred to as the 'bathtub' as their land is going to be covered in water when the storm comes. The story is about her relationship with her father, as well as her connection with nature and shows how they live in the wild, away from all technology and communication when compared to the buzzing cities within America. Aside from the little girl being majorly cute, i loved this film for its storyline as well as the amazing use of cinematography. The scenery shots within the film were beautiful, as well as the close-ups used to show the nature. The whole film came across as if it was filmed with a handheld camera as it was quite shaky, this made the film seem more realistic as well as the camera having a very soft touch effect on it, sometimes fuzzy which went well with the scenery and colours shown within the film. I would recommend anyone to go and see this film as it is definitely my film of the year, which was clearly evident to the cinema as i cried through half of it!
