Image Journal concludes,
Window Water Baby Moving exists, like all the best works of cinema, as a record of love. It reminds me that such tender, romantic, passionate, and quiet love, even if it changes, even if it goes away, has existed. And in that reminding—the reminding that is, for me, the heart of cinema—it manages to exist in a kind of continual, mysterious, and eternal present.TCM has information.

DeleteI think that woman was "brave" to be filmed while giving birth for the whole world to see. I don't think I'd have wanted to be filmed when I gave birth.

ReplyDeletelol yes, everybody has to go through YouTube to see it. That's just how it's set up.
DeleteI was present when a friend had her baby on my couch in my family room in MO. The EMTs were called, but she was already starting to have the baby when they got there. The baby was breech and the cord was wrapped around his neck. Thank goodness the EMTs were there, because I had NO idea what to do for her, That's the most I ever want to see of a live birth. I took photos of the mother and son after they were in the hospital, but it didn't even occur to me to take photos before or during the birth.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like an emergency that would definitely seem inappropriate for video. Yikes!
DeleteThis one sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteI definitely thought so.
