Review of Nanook of the North (1922) by Daniel A — 09 Sep 2009
Undeniable is its importance to film industry history, even if being considered a faux documentary. Flaherty wanted a portrayal of the true Inuit ancestors in the cold arctic, so he fooled the audiences to accomplish that, by adding a bit of staging.
The result is in sight. An unscrupulous depiction of a now lost kind of living.
