Documentary Reflection
The PBS documentary that my group and I watched together was a simple narrative. The techinique they used was mostly pictures and qoutes and few interviews. I personally enjoyed the style of the movie. We watched a total of four hours of information and because the civil war was the first photographed war i believe that is why the producers chose to use so many of the pictures rather than focusing on the interviews. Also, because the war was so long ago most of the information they can give is soley fact. Unlike with more recent wars when there are surviors, the civil war obviously doesnt have any surviors so it is difficult to have any commentary.
