Beach, Afternoon, With Students
Beach, Afternoon, With Students
05:00:11:- CU Interview with Lien, an attractive and quite charming 17 year old female student. Interview is conducted on a makeshift Hue beach, much noise in the BG. She and the video producer talk about where she goes to school, a song she sang earlier on, and a move she is to make with her family to Canada. She then sings a Vietnamese song about the importance of parents; zoom in to ECU of her eyes as she swoons; pan L to CU of a friend accompanying her. Afterwards they continue the conversation, talking about American vs Vietnamese dating habits (Americans fall in love too young; Vietnamese girls don't date until they're 19, don't smoke or drink wine... a little beer is okay, though), and what their greatest hopes from life are (world peace, no war, and better relations between the Vietnamese and US governments). 05:11:39:- MS's and CU's of the fairly large group of Vietnamese students sitting under a tarp for a photo opportunity. Ray, a polite yet burly member of the video crew (check out his crazy Appalacian Mountainman beard) talks with them about school and music. Good MS of Ray (with his beard and sunglasses he looks like a wayward member of ZZ Top) playing an untuned guitar that is also missing several strings... strumming the pop chords of death.
