There's another scene where he's interviewing an elderly woman (she was probably born in the mid 1800's!) I have no idea what they're talking about, but they're looking through albums. I'd love to know who she was. Not a relative, because he refers to her as Mrs. (can't remember the name right now) on the film notes.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03119827816698009731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080299065441712068.post-21022840727200515902015-12-17T08:59:48.538-06:002015-12-17T08:59:48.538-06:00this may be the best one yet. so many awesome HATS...this may be the best one yet. so many awesome HATS. i appreciate his attention to filming random little details around the house, but i wish he would have mastered the skill of how to FOCUS, haha...<br /><br />i had no idea aluminum trees existed in the 30s! and any idea what he was doing in the scene where he's sitting at the table and lights a candle? what did he pick up next?FrankOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01316107158387079660noreply@blogger.com
