Relationship Between Shots Hunt for the Wilderpeople  (2016, dir. Taika Waititi) In spending about, oh, I don't know, two hours or so excitedly jumping from one movie clip to another of literally EVERY movie I've rated above an 8 on my IMDB account (which is admittedly a lot), I stumbled across Hunt for the Wilderpeople, a Taika Waititi movie from 2016. A movie that was totally underappreciated, but nonetheless absolutely heartwarming (it also happened to be the only movie I could find with a clip under one minute). I'll spare you a confusing plot summary, but I totally recommend giving it a watch (fmovies - I'll say no more).

Interview Transcript

It turns out I'm not THAT great of an interviewer... so my footage sort of has multiple arcs going on at the same time...? I feel like I could either focus on Ashleigh as a wife and Mother trying to find her own independence, or how she was close with her Mom and how her pregnancy changed their relationship/her Mom's relationship to Ashleigh's daughter, or just focus on her "what's next after being a Mom" is finding her own independence...? I highlighted a couple of points that seemed like good markers for a beginning, middle or end. Interview w/ Ashleigh Transcript STE-010.wav [00:00:21.01] i was raised by a single mother [00:00:23.08] so my mom and I are very very very close [00:00:27.12] probably too close because she's more so my best friend than anything else [00:00:33.26] I had come to new york to spend the summer with my dad [00:00:38.29] my mom had like redecorated my room, painted it, new bed, new closet, it was so fancy ...
