			Family Portraits: A Trilogy of America 
 
Three short films by Douglas Buck.  I had already seen Cutting Moments, but I watched it again anyway.  I don't know why I do these things to myself. Depressing, disgusting, you feel like you need to scrub with a belt sander after watching it.  The mood Buck sets in all three films is just amazing.  Home & Prologue don't quite have the effect that Cutting Moments does (which is a shame, because it's the first film on the DVD) but they're both good shorts that will still cut you to the core. 
 
These films ARE NOT for everyone.  I think they are very well done, and they really hit home on the atmosphere of disintigrated family on several levels.  Very good films all three.
