Com To date, these are the reviews available: The Forgotten Village 2. Other reviews written about this title, claim that this film shows how a village must choose between their old way of living and the modern way of living.
I can see no proof for such a claim watching this film. Why should the village have to take the whole "package" of modern civilization and not just take the good parts and leave the garbage? Now, in reality in might well be that they are forced to take the garbage and never obtain the good parts, but unfortunately this is not the story that this film tells.
The Girl From The Forgotten Village [Mary Rose Scala] on www.farmersmarketmusic.com *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. I have often wondered how many other persons. Kinzua was a quaint village set in a beautiful valley. Morrison (a minute village just a short six miles away) was forgotten in the demise of it.
If, for instance, there would suddenly appear a gold-find in the village, surely the whole village with its inhabitants would be wiped out buy modern business-men and their lackey-soldiers but that is not the story that this film tells. I still give this film three stars for its militant voice-over that defies all direct sound. How much better are not films, that in no way try to be "realistic". Films are films and when they not try to be something else then they are at their best.
