History of Cinema Verite
Cinema verite film makers found it the best way to tell the truth about cinema.
Cinema verite often wants to reveal the truth about something and wipe out any other observations that the audience as thought about before.
This sort of “realism” was later then criticised for its deceptive construction of reality.
Saving private Ryan: Hand held camera was used to create a sense of realism.
