What an interesting part! Documentary style and movie dolls are done seriously (I really like this kind of serious nonsense hahaha)
Although, the deepest impression is really those romantic plots hhh (the status quo of f people) -"Now, how do you feel about it here?" -"It's the worst. I hate the country. I hate the grass and the mosquitoes. And cooking...Your cooking is terrible. Your pancakes...They're...I dump them in the garbage when you're not looking." -"Uh-huh." -"And the jokes you try and tell when...When you think you're amusing, they're long and pointless, there's no end to them." -"I see. And what else?" -"I wanna go to bed with you." -" Oh...that surprises me. I didn't think you like me so much." -"I love you."
What brings Zelig back to himself is precisely the love Fletcher has for her by seeing him as a person (rather than some symbolic object of adoration or ridicule or commodity). The United States in the 1920s and 1930s was an environment that could not be ignored, but this kind of "decapitalized" love was an indelible ray of light in the film.
