Looking for the light in the Story of Film again



I've been running out of things to play in the background for my worknight triple features, so have been going through Mark Cousins excellent Story of Film documentary again - that's 15 hours right there.

It's worth going through to find out about things like the wildly innovate Brazilian films of the 1930s, but mainly I just like the way Cousins keeps saying 'look at the light' in his outrageously soft accent. Considering he is talking about a medium entirely composed of lights, he says things like that a lot.

I really do need to check out his women in film update to his story. There is always more light.
