Alas, I forgot! (A companion to The Hunger Games)

One thing that I forgot to include in my previous discussion of The Hunger Games was how much I appreciated the handheld cameras. For most of the intense, emotional, and action scenes, the view is jerky and blurred, much like it would be in real life. The method of photography allows viewers to see the story as Katniss must have, confusing and terrifying. It brings across the adrenaline and fear.

Rock on.
