I normally do not like documentaries as I lose focus on 1 of 2 parts of it. The 1st part is the information. Trying to listen on what is being said, hearing it, taking it in, and understanding it without losing focus because of the pictures on the screen and also being able to process it before hearing the next thing said. Then you have the 2nd part which is the pictures and video. Taking in the photos, the view, processing it and seeing the details, seeing what the director wants you to focus on and everything else that draws your eye naturally. Seeing and judging every person that comes on the screen, people that you may never meet but their information is important. Seeing the landscape in the background, places you may never go and only having this chance to learn from these people and seeing these places because you may never have the opportunity but also because this movie is not out in the US at this time. Will it ever be? I hope so. I would love to have a copy to watch over and over learning something new about these amazing men from these amazing producers. This copy we watched was Steven's copy, our one chance at this time to learn about The Six. It was powerful, educational, and laid out so well that I could hold my focus and take in the video and the commentary at the same time. I hope the movie and book gets released in the US one day. It is sad to think that this may be something I will never be able to share with my husband David. I can tell him about the movie and explain somewhat but I would never be able to recall it all or give him the feelings, the emotions, the satisfaction of a mystery coming together. Only the movie can do that. I highly recommend this movie. For any history buff or Titanic buff, this movie is not something you want to miss. Thank you to Steven Schwankert for sharing it with our group.
