Along the Bed's Edge Sitting (2018)
This reads like a short story
I've always liked the short story form. So little can say so much. Well directed and acted, "Along The Beds Edge Sitting", in real time and through a series of flashbacks, offers us a brief but full history of our characters. Depicting one troubling scene in silence was particularly powerful. The touching finale of the little girl was a poignant conclusion to a portrait of this troubled family unit.
Step (2017)
Where's the Step?
I was very disappointed by the lack of attention actually given to Step. Yes, I enjoyed being brought into the lives of these girls and was very moved by the efforts being made by their school and families to get them into college and on to better lives. Honestly though, this documentary missed it by not showing me more about their classes and certainly I would have liked seeing more performances. That's the main reason I rented this movie. The preview probably showed more step than the movie did. Too bad.
