The Man with a Movie Camera

I think that the movie was kind of weird since its my first silent documentary film. I did not really understand how different shots relate to each other. The music made the movie a little more easier to watch and I could relate more the music with the shots that was really going on. What I could understand about the film is that film can go anywhere, for example he films ordinary things like women doing her hair, people getting dressed to go out and people doing sports. I think what Vertov was going for is that cameras can go anywhere but yet they are noticed. The reading did explain certain aspects of the movie since I didn't really understand what was really going on in the entire film.
