| Description: | Vacation Movies. Looks like 1940s home movies, handheld, speed slightly faster than real time. Panning shot of body of water, opposite shore in distance. MWS white woman, her hair tied up in a scarf, wades in water, hiking up her dress so it won't get wet; she smiles back at camera, perhaps flirting. Various shots of Caucasian adults outside building. Outdoors at a resort-type area with tables & umbrellas in background, a white couple (man & woman) approach the camera and act quite hammy; they look like they might even be actors doing some routine, or else they were the cameraman's very wacky friends. Comedy, mugging for camera. Brunette woman settles into chair for sunbathing. Woman wearing bathing cap (swim cap) dives into a swimming pool. Shots of man climbing tree with smooth trunk, using some sort of harness to get himself up there. White couple (tourists) pose for camera, tropical-looking plants behind them. WS two young children standing outside of what looks like a large hut. Two shots of a group of children scurrying about on roadway in tropical-looking location, scrambling to grab something off the ground (not sure what); fun, play. Slightly blurry, bluish shot of adults waving at camera in front of building. View from inside airport, looking out window at airplane taxiing in, palm trees in background. Another shot of plane taxiing. POV shots from airplane window of plane's wing, plus the land below, and finally wing and clouds. Maybe flying home at the end of someone's vacation. | |
