After watching the film “Nanook of the North” in class, my first impression was not very interesting. In the beginning it was kind of boring, reason being due to the fact it was black and white film with only music in the background and periods of just text being shown to describe the scene. I must say after watching ten minutes into the film and before I had a chance to start to fall asleep, it started to seem interesting and I found myself enjoying it. For example, when the eskimos started hunting for walruses it was quite impresses, you can tell the eskimos had a solid strategy when it came to hunting. eskimos weren’t too aggressive on how they hunted the walrus they stayed stealthy as long as they could. Once on attack the eskimos showed remarkable team work on bring the walrus into shore. Another great scene in this film was finding of the foxhole, in the beginning of the scene I was confused just due to the fact I had no idea what the eskimo was looking for, after eskimo poked his head to what seem like to me a bunch a snow he comes out with a fox, me having no idea it was even a foxhole. The reason why I find this scene incredible and also impressive what looked like just like a regular bank of snow,  was really a foxhole, this shows how aware the eskimo people are to their environment. Even though I cannot stress how important the eskimo’s people survival skills are but there family life is what shows there no difference from you and me. One of the heartwarming scenes the family gathered together listening to music on a vinyl witch I believe was the first time for them or seemed like it because there reaction to record track was like they never used or had one even one of the eskimos tried to eat the vinyl.  All that being said for the time of the documentary being released I can see how it could be a big hit, showing the audience how other people around the world live, even if some people say eskimo people were acting  in front of a camera. It’s fair enough to say that this is what it would somewhat be like if you were an eskimo.
