Review of Lightning Over Water (1980) by Walter M — 03 Jun 2011
This is a wonderful companion piece to Bunuel's Las Hurdes. While this seems to be more chaotic, it is obviously scripted, and both are savage in questioning the ethics and aesthetics of documentary film-making.
It makes a fitting end to Nicholas Ray's career.
