Robert Flaherty
1926

It's subtitled "A Romance of the Golden Age."
It's very pretty and relaxed, could almost be called lyrical.
But it's also pretty dull. Those Samoans sure do lead an idyllic life. And the women's traditional costume, it shows their boobs.
Seriously, so boring. Also, the big painful tattoing ritual that Moana undergoes at the end of the movie? The practice was dying out. They staged it specifically for the movie.
This was the first movie to have the word "documentary" attached to it.
Michael Moore doesn't seem so bad.
I think I hate Robert Flaherty.
