So, 'The Children are Watching' from '99 is quite something. It’s a raw documentary that really digs into family dynamics—like, you feel the tension. It follows four families and captures these moments that are sometimes hard to watch, honestly. The way the kids mirror their parents' actions is intriguing, almost unsettling at times. The pacing can be a bit uneven, which adds to the feeling of real life, you know? The camera's always there, catching those unguarded moments that reveal so much about parenting and adolescence. It doesn't hold back on the uncomfortable stuff either, which I appreciate. It's a distinctive look at what happens when parenting goes awry, but also when it doesn’t. Definitely a conversation starter.
