Alice Sees The Light





I just caught the last 10 minutes of the most amazing experimental/social awareness/documentary film on pbs after watching Thelma and Louise. I wish I had watched more of the other, rather than t&l. Stylistically it was so cool with lots of still frames with text coming in over in stop motion. The images were beautiful. From what I gathered, the film was about a woman who lived in the country but there had been a large commercial plant built right next to her house that had extremely bright lights. So bright, in fact, that her eyes could never switch into night vision because they were not distinguishing nightime. It was freakin cool and confirms even more my love for PBS.

I heart you PBS.
