There was even a Piggy
May. 29th, 2005 04:56 pmToday I watched Boys Alone, which is a documentary/reality-tv take on Lord of the Flies -- they left ten 11-12 year old boys alone in a big house and filmed the resulting chaos over 5 days.
Overall I think it's a good piece - there's a reasonable amount of inline commentary and a minimal amount of outside drama (no voting people out of the house). I would have liked some more followup analysis; I'm told that was done in a sequel. None of it was terribly surprising, behaviour-wise.
(For the curious, it's available as a .torrent on UKNova.)
