Review of Dark Days (2000) by Stella D — 09 Nov 2008
A powerful documentary about a group of homeless people living in an abandoned stretch of amtrak tunnel under nyc, some of them for years. first time filmmaker marc singer lived underground for several months, then decided to make a film to raise money to help his friends.
using loaned equipment and the homeless as his crew, he recorded their strange life in this moving film. during this time amtrak sought to forcibly evict them from the tunnel. a fascinating story and amazing work by a group of non professionals, with a fitting soundtrack by dj shadow.
