Bait
Made in a style of a documentary from the days of Pathe News and the 1940's. This black and white movie feel gave a greater intensity to the really very slim story.
The various themes were
The juxtaposition of blue collar and white collar money.
An industry dying due to the EU permitting over fishing by industrial trawlers in British waters that has led to the destruction of this industry.
The abject poverty and hand to mouth existence requiring the influx of monied tourists to support any industry.
The role of community and us and them.
The difference between a real home and temporary home.
The elevation almost reverence of a skilled and "honest" trade.
Overall this was a very good movie but is claustrophobic feel, limited variety of image, and an unbalanced viewpoint that took the side of the fishermen always was somewhat of a politically driven movie. The format of an entertaining movie is not best placed to preach at anyone.
