Review of Forgotten Silver (1997) by David B — 27 Mar 2011
This little known mockumentary by Peter Jackson is completely convincing in its very subtle silliness as it explores the life and career of New Zealandâ??s totally unknown cinematic visionary and pioneer, unfortunately forgotten by history but deserving of a place in history alongside the Lumiere brothers, D.
W. Griffith, Eisenstein, Lang, etc; the feel of the changing times during the early 20th century is particularly well captured, with an especially hilarious satire of Communist propaganda in early filmmaking.
