a man with a movie camera

What is is about this film that encapsulates its audience? It doesn't have a structure or a meaning or even a purpose except to define life and movement and show the mechanics of life. The drastic contrast between the slow music and the fast provided emotions to the simple images being shown. It was interesting to me how they attempted to show not only what the camera can record but also what the filmmaker does to create its shots. Was this movie created to show love, socioeconomic structure, life, or politics? Or was is as simple as to show what can be created through film. Film has no borders or constraints. Our minds are like our own personal movie camera but the down fall to these is that we have no way of storing each detail we see and hear. So we write it down in a journal or sketch it out while doodling in class but regardless of our attempts we have no physical record besides our memory and the imagination that adds onto our thoughts. That is the amazing ability that film holds which can be seen in "A Man With a Movie Camera" because it proves that anything, not matter how miniscule can be recorded and kept forever.
