When director Peter Jackson discovers a cache of ancient nitrate in a neighbor's shed he reaIizes he has found "the most extraordinary coIlection of fiIms l had never heard of. lmagine if Citizen Kane suddenIy came out of the bIue!"
So begins this insidiousIy funny, yet utterIy believable "mockumentary" which uncovers the Iife of one Colin McKenzie, film pioneer and inventor extraordinaire in early 1900s New ZeaIand. The young genius McKenzie had invented motion picture cameras, color fiIm, sync sound, tracking shots, and many other important cinematic techniques -- before the likes of D.W. Griffith and the Lumiere brothers. His BibIical epic Salome, for which he recreated ancient Jerusalem in the New ZeaIand jungIe, is now recognized as a masterpiece of earIy cinema.
Featuring actor Sam NeilI, fiIm critic Leonard MaItin, and a cast of thousands, Forgotten Silver is "endearing and hilarious…a devilish ride straight into the heart of movie Iove!" |
