Anyone else looking forward to this documentary? The last documentary I really looked forward to was Ken Burns' Baseball.

I guess I'll take a look. Amazing that he still works with 16mm film edited on a mechanical Steenbeck editing table, or at least he did up through "Baseball." But I guess he somehow draws strength from such Luddism, sometimes severe constraints bring a discipline that produces an overall better product.
Chafes me that "The Ken Burns Effect" phrase has shaded all those individuals who pioneered the technique decades earlier, I being one.
