You Should Watch This: Behind The Camera

On this edition of You Should Watch This, we explore a triumvirate of films that take a deep look at the art of filmmaking.

Welcome back to You Should Watch This, a series where we explore the history of cinema three films at a time. This week, we’re looking at a trio of documentaries focused on the art of what happens behind the camera when making a movie.

These films not only provide an insight in to the art of filmmaking, they urgently remind us what makes cinema so very powerful. The movies included here can also be seen as a warning to avoid the hubris of the single-minded, overly ambitious artist.
