Interesting but flawed... October 9, 2008

Avid cinephiles will usually eat up just about anything about the craft of filmmaking, so I would consider this a nice appetizer more than a full meal. The Doc has way too many interviews for such a short running time. It spends a good 20 mins on introductions before it really gets going to the good stuff, with some guys getting less than a minute or two.
And with no archival footage (just static interviews) it's hard to get a real vision of their work. For example Roger Deakins talks about tweaking the opening shot for Barton Fink but we never see it. There is some interesting jargon about different lights and lens's but not enough real insight into particular films. I was never bored but I wish they had gone deeper into the actual specifics more.
If you havn't seen the terrific Visons of Light, I reccomend you start with that, it has more history and is loaded with clips, and then if you're still hungry for more check this out. The special features do contain two 1hr chats with Vittorio Storaro and Gordon Willis that go into much more detail than the actual doc.
