Poster

Trailer
Rating: D
Commentary: There is absolutely nothing going on with this poster and it doesn’t really tell anyone looking at it what it’s about. What keeps it from getting an F is the sheer magnitude of the names on display on the poster. 		Rating: B+
Commentary: If you’re at all a cinema buff, this documentary should be a vital part of the continuing dialogue over the advent of digital filmmaking and its destruction of the film stock medium.
Preview Link: CLICK HERE for link to the trailer, more posters (if available) and other commentary not featured here.
Oscar Chances: I think this could be a key player at this year’s Oscars, though the Academy has been gun shy about industry-specific examinations before, so it will be the uphill climb of getting nominated that it must overcome. If it is, a win might be an easier sell.
