Feminists: What Were They Thinking? (2018)
A must see
This was completely and utterly moving. A wonderful look at second wave feminism, told through the voices and eyes of the women who took part. So powerful, and so moving, full of righteous power, beauty and with a real voice.
Rachel Khoo's Kitchen (2014)
Great recipes and great personality but...
I like the show, like the variety of recipes they have and I love Rachel, but the show has a serious problem. And once you notice it it's so distracting.
The camera is constantly losing focus. Almost every shot in the show is a very close-up angle, which is fine. It adds a bit of energy and personality, and it makes the viewer feel like they're right there. But they constantly intentionally blur out.
A shot of a piece of cooking bacon, a close-up of some wine, a reaction shot of Rachel, they almost always start fully in focus but then immediately and for a split second the camera will go out, then back in focus. I believe it's to give a "manual" feel to the show- to make it seem like it's shot on film maybe. But it's incredibly distracting and can be quite irritating at times.
