    This is one of the most fascinating documentaries I've ever watched. The making of a documentary... It is pretty awesome. I recommend it to any film asficionado, or aspiring film maker.

    very choppy. second disc is almost impossible to watch. why isn't there a play all option for the special features? every few minutes the viewer must make another selection. ironic isn't it that this movie about moviemaking is so difficult to navigate...
