00:00An American Family, take one.
00:01We're all in it.
00:02Are we starting right away?
00:04Yeah, just keep on coming.
00:05Remember, we're invisible.
00:07We're like the West Coast Kennedys.
00:09We got a family to be proud of.
00:11There's someone I want you to meet.
00:13Craig Gilbert.
00:14This is Pat Loud.
00:16I make documentary films, Pat.
00:18I want to observe an American family.
00:20The ideal family.
00:21Wherever the family goes, we go.
00:23The house, the school, the supermarket.
00:26What about the bathroom?
00:27No.
00:29Gentlemen, meet the Louds.
00:31The handsome, hard-working dad.
00:32Cut. Roll again. Here we go.
00:34The smart, sultry mom.
00:35I don't like sultry.
00:37And wait till you see the firstborn.
00:38Solid gold.
00:40You do realize that we're being followed by a camera crew, Lance?
00:43Yes.
00:45When you turn a camera on things, the truth just rises to the surface.
00:50You're burning 18 rolls of film per day, and nothing is happening.
00:54That feels nice.
00:56I just talked.
00:56Because I don't want to give you the wrong idea, that everything is okay with us.
01:00Are you and Bill having problems?
01:02I haven't been an angel, Craig.
01:03But I'm sure you figured that out.
01:05This is about documentary ethics.
01:07You shoot what I need to make a successful film.
01:09I think you are a pathetic fool.
01:12Sad.
01:13Idiotic.
01:13Because I'm married to a down.
01:15That's it.
01:15We're done.
01:16We're leaving.
01:16Don't you do this to me.
01:17This is what we've been waiting for.
01:19The best stuff is happening right now.
01:22I said no filming here.
01:24There's real suffering happening here, Craig.
01:26You should have seen my kids last night.
01:28The whole world should have seen your kids for this film to have any kind of emotional impact.
01:33Beware anyone who knocks on your door telling you that he'll make you famous just for being yourself.
01:40There's a much bigger picture here that you don't even understand.
01:45Cinema verite, right?
01:47Whatever happens, happens.
01:48There's a little boy we've been on time to win again.
