Dreams of a Life was a documentary about a women called Joyce Vincent who when found had been dead for a whole three years in her flat. It was never reported until found and no one checked on her for all of those three years.
The reason for the making of this film/ documentary was that it was showing how people are forgotten so easily. It is also trying to say. "Would anyone miss you?".
The reason we did watch this though was to see how English films are not as successful as the big budget Hollywood thrillers. We spoke and discussed the possible reason and some that arouse between people was that documentaries for isn't the types of films that is the mos popular genre in this society as much as it used to be. A lot of people want to watch thrilling and exciting thriller or very scary jump scare movies now a days.
Another reason that we thought maybe why this film had a lot of trouble getting in the cinemas was because it did not have to reputation of the films that are being made in Hollywood.
One of the best film communities in the world is in France this is because a lot of cinemas have agreed to show 70% French films this is so they can keep their film community alive however in the UK we just have mostly American block buster films and rarely are able to see a good English film anymore. We know this because Dreams of a Life was not shown in cinemas much after the release date.
