The Pilgrims (2015)
Out of Focus

Choosing to portray William Bradford as old and sickly was a mistake, in my opinion. Every time the actor came on, it was like all the life was sucked out of the film, although the words he read were interesting. The history was difficult to follow. And the visuals were like many in Nova - fairly static and boring. There were some weird choices, for example when the landing party encountered an existing Native grave (they dug it up in hope of finding food), the confusion they felt was portrayed by blurring the images and moving the camera around. The story was mostly dependent on the narration, the visuals often seemed incidental. We did learn some stuff while watching it. 5/10.
