One of the The Best Resources Online
For anyone working in film or video production who missed film school, this piece is a must. Beautifully produced, it covers film history from the perspective of directors seeking to use the means to explore and express truth -- social, political, psychological and spiritual. Clips from the great films of the past century are used as illustration. Key directors, actors and actresses involved in those films are interviewed. These, combined with the insights of the narrator, Mark Cousins, are extremely helpful to anyone engaged in film or video production--or anyone interested in film beyond the level of Hollywood gloss. This is much more of a philosophical and intellectual history than a mere chronicle of technical evolution.
Not a producer but a film lover? This piece will point you in the direction of films you may have missed that will greatly enhance your experience with the medium. 15 hours -- find the time. Highly recommended.
Essential viewing for a movie buff
A priceless collection of unforgettable movie moments and commentary. Mark Cousins creates the filmic equivalent of the ultimate film class.
The Story of Film: An Odyssey
I REALLY ENJOYED THE FASCINATING STORY LINES...4 STARS SHOWS IT IS WORTH BUYING! I LIKE THE VISIONS, THE VOICE OF THE NARRATOR, THE BLACK AND WHITE TONE. VERY WELL DIRECTED AND EXPLAINED. THE OTHER STORY OF FILM WAS BRILLIANT AND TIED TOGETHER WITH THIS ONE.
THANK YOU,
JUDE
