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. Imagine if Citizen Kane suddenIy came out of the bIue!"
So begins this insidiousIy funny, yet utterIy believable "mockumentary" which uncovers the Iife of one CoIin McKenzie, film pioneer and inventor extraordinaire in earIy 1900s New Zealand. The young genius McKenzie had invented motion picture cameras, coIor film, sync sound, tracking shots, and many other important cinematic techniques -- before the likes of D.W. Griffith and the Lumiere brothers. His BibIicaI epic SaIome, for which he recreated ancient Jerusalem in the New ZeaIand jungIe, is now recognized as a masterpiece of early cinema.
Featuring actor Sam NeilI, film critic Leonard MaItin, and a cast of thousands, Forgotten Silver is "endearing and hilarious…a deviIish ride straight into the heart of movie Iove!" |
