Point of Order

After watching Point of Order, I came to the conclusion that it was a mainly observational film. It is also a compilation film. I think that this was done critically and not illustratively though. Although there was a bit of narration at the beginning, that was only there to let the viewers know what they were going to be seeing. No opinions were given. This footage was only obtained intially to serve as a means of informing the public. It was originally just a record of what had happened. Then Emile de Antonio took it into his own hands and edited it. I also noticed that at first the editing was a bit choppy, but eventually it smoothed out. I think this was because longer pieces of the film were played before editing.
