Average Rating: 
Rating: - Productions from Kulture Video are generally poor.
This is about productions from Kulture Video. The acting is wooden, and generally consists of "actors" dressed up in period costumes, and reciting a memorized monologue, while staring blankly somewhere beyond the camera.

The speech is generally difficult to understand, because of poor diction on the part of the "actors" and because of the low quality of the recording.

Rating: - Shackleton - The Search for Good Video Documentation
As one thirsty to find good video content on Shackleton's legendary expedition to Antartica, I am especially interested in Hurley's (Shackleton's photographer on his Endurance voyage) motion picture images, said to exist and to be used to document that trip. Unfortunately, this video has (little or) no footage of Hurley's moving pictures, but does contain the most famous still photos. Perhaps the weakest part of the video is the periodic dramatization, in a studio, of the life threatening circumstances. ... Read More
