In our fourth review this season, Sara and Dad watch and analyze the winner of the first (and only) Academy Award for Best Unique and Artistic Picture, Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans. Released on September 23, 1927, Sunrise divided critics and wooed audiences with its inventive camerawork and allegorical love story.
What seems to be a standard "murder your wife in order to run away with your mistress" opening morphs into a feast for the eyes, and then holds you captive with an examination into the depths of the human soul.
Extra components include some fascinating historical events that eventually relate to Dad personally (and Sara by two or three degrees of Kevin Bacon, hold the bacon).
