Film Review
In The Way I See It, Reagan and
Obama’s Official Photographer Shares
The Presidency Through Photos
By Morgan Rojas for cinemacy.com
Immediately after the film ended, I texted
my brother, Ryan: “Just watched The Way
I See It for review and wow. Easily one of
my favorite films of the year.”
It’s been claimed that photographer Pete
Souza created the best photo archive of a
President ever. After watching Dawn Porter’s
documentary, The Way I See It, I believe that
statement solely based on the chills I got
while watching the film.
Souza–who is charmingly referred to as
“The King of Shade” on Instagram–stayed
publicly apolitical throughout his entire career
as the Official White House Photographer
during the Ronald Reagan and Barack Obama
presidencies; until now.
The ultimate fly on the wall, Souza not
only captured some of the most influential
and powerful moments in American history,
but humanized the leaders in these roles.
Since the Obama era ended, the mistreatment
towards journalists and the free press
has been increasingly disheartening. Having
now reached his breaking point, Pete is finally
speaking his mind on today’s leadership, by
sharing his secret weapon: his photos.
Through his lens, Pete gives the audience
never before seen intimate moments from
both the Reagan and Obama presidencies,
the most powerful of which are the small,
fleeting exchanges that are both beautiful
and sentimental beyond words.
Perhaps the biggest takeaway is Pete’s
notion about the role of a leader, that not
everyone will agree with your policies, but
your behavior should always be respectable.
This goes without saying that Pete’s comments
are pointed at one person in particular,
but this simple yet common sense reminder
applies to everyday situations too. A truly
remarkable film, The Way I See It is proof
that the impact of a still photo can say a lot
more than words.
Distributed by Focus Features, The Way I
See It is now playing at Regency Theatres
Directors Cut Cinema in Laguna Niguel

7:00 pm. •

(BPT) - No one has escaped the effects
of the pandemic, but working parents are
struggling. Staring down a lack of childcare,
new work-from-home situations, and insufficient
support from employers or public
resources, these individuals are nearing
the end of their rope emotionally, and for
many, financially. The start of the school
year further complicates matters as parents
grapple with difficult decisions and limited
options due to school policies or their own
financial and employment constraints. While
parents navigate this fraught period for their
families and bank accounts, the country must
understand three things: Where parents stand
now, what they need from their employers
in the future, and what can be done in the
meantime to find relative peace and security.
Where Parents Stand
According to Prudential’s Financial Wellness
Census, over half of Americans said
their financial health was negatively impacted
following the outbreak of the pandemic. For
Millennials and Gen X, many of whom are
parents of school-aged children, more than
one in five households saw their income
fall by half or more. It is no surprise, then,
that 58 percent of caregivers, a group which
includes parents, are currently concerned for
their financial futures. Working parents today
are scared and depleted. Doing their jobs at
home while simultaneously managing their
children’s health, entertainment and education
all day, parents have been juggling at least
two full-time jobs since March. On top of
that stress, their changed financial situations
have led to higher stakes and fewer solutions
when it comes to education and care as the
school year begins.
What Parents Want
In the midst of a financial crisis, the Financial
Wellness Census found that Americans
turn first to the federal government for help,
followed closely by family and friends. Only
14 percent sought financial assistance from
employers during this time, but results concerning
employees’ feelings about benefits
reveal how workplaces can evolve to provide
parents with greater support. The statistics are
particularly telling for women, who typically
carry a disproportionate amount of household
childcare responsibilities. In fact, 43 percent
of women want more flexible work options
