re: documentary

i think that is worth pursuing, at least in discussion. i think it is a clear example of a film project that would merit a lot of discussion in regards to the ethics of film. i would not be comfortable doing this, for example, unless we were able to offer help to our homeless subject. in fact, i think it would be hard to get past the artifice of the relationship. what do other people think?

an idea i had:
an old lady (in a nursing home) is visited by a young man whose grandmother is in the same home. she falls in love with him as he treats her very well - taking her out to ice cream and such. but he is suave and generally uninterested in anything but making himself look good to his prospective girlfriend. the old lady dies, and the man confronts his guilt just as he has his opportunity to kiss his girlfriend goodnight. aaaaand clockwipe.
