Review of The Missing Picture (2013) by Stephen R — 17 Feb 2014
A filmed essay wherein the use of clay figures and dioramas to fill in the "missing picture" is surprisingly effective. Add shots of the figures being carved and painted while the narrator speaks plus archival footage and we have the elements of a powerful movie.
Sadly, the monotone narration drove a wedge between me and the story; I found it very difficult to stay focused. The dioramas are great, though.
