A Boatload of Wild Irishmen
&Text Size&&&&
Robert Flaherty () was the man credited with being the father of the modern documentary film after he produced and directed "Nanook of the North" in 1922.
Flaherty is one of the great name directors in the history of cinema and to this day films such as "Nanook of the North", "Moana", "Man of Aran" and "Louisiana Story" are widely regarded as classics and still regularly screened.
Flaherty is also a controversial figure in that he was also the first to show that filming the everyday life of real people could be molded into dramatic, entertaining narratives. The minute he chose to stage scenes in order to make a better film out of his seminal Inuit project "Nanook of the North", he was opening documentary's Pandora's Box.
And with his later work in Samoa, the Aran Islands
and Louisiana first raised such enduring topics of documentary ethics as ethnographic falsification, exploitation of one's subjects and the perils of corporate sponsorship.
But this entertaining portrait of Flaherty shrewdly looks beyond standard polemical positions to present a complex view of the man and his work (shown in vivid excerpts).
A BOATLOAD OF WILD IRISHMEN includes testimony from Flaherty himself as well as contributions from amongst others, Richard Leacock - cameraman on "Louisiana Story" (1948) and father of the contemporary hand-held documentary style, Martha Flaherty - Flaherty's Inuit granddaughter, George Stoney - documentary filmmaker and professor at New York University, Seán Crosson - film scholar at the Huston School of Film, Jay Ruby - anthropologist and film scholar at Temple University, and Deirdre Ní Chonghaile - musician and folklorist from ?rainn, as well as telling interviews with the people whose parents and grandparents Flaherty put onto the cinema screens of the world: Inuit, Samoans and, of obvious personal interest to the Irish filmmakers, the 'wild men' of Aran.
"A long overdue portrait...A BOATLOAD OF WILD IRISHMEN makes a particularly important contribution in that it captures some of the histories that have been created, sustained, and recreated by those most closely effected by Flaherty?s films." &Leonardo Digital Reviews
"The film carefully addresses the meaning of documentary within the context of film history and Flaherty?s relationship with colleagues and the film industry itself...It should be viewed by everyone interested in the history of documentary film." &Educational Media Reviews Online
"Informative and evenhanded, A Boatload of Wild Irish is a satisfying survey of Flaherty?s work and controversies." &Libertas Film Magazine

Boatload Puzzles’ crossword collection includes 40,000 Small puzzles, so you can play a daily crossword every day for a lifetime without ever seeing the same puzzle twice!The crosswords can be played for free.
There’s no upsell to try to get you to buy puzzle packs.Boatload Puzzles’ crosswords are all easy, and don’t contain any obscure words that are rarely found outside of crossword puzzles.The app uses the internet briefly once a day to automatically download the current day’s puzzle, but you don’t need to be online in order to play a downloaded puzzle.This app is easy to learn how to use.
It only takes a single tap to use any feature of the app.
Buttons with words on them are given preference over wordless icons whose meaning might be unclear.
And features that crossword solvers usually don’t use when solving easy puzzles are avoided, to limit the number of features that need to be learned in order to use the app.
But the basic features you’d expect in a crossword app are there: you can choose to show or hide incorrect letters, and you can get hints by showing a correct letter, word or entire puzzle.The app chooses one of five different screen layouts, in order to make the best use of the screen regardless of screen orientation and size.
On a small screen, only one across and one down clue are displayed at a time, and no (unneeded) grid numbers are displayed, in order to make the grid letters larger and easier to read.
