Must have documentary for Harryhausen fans...
Must have documentary for Harryhausen fans! Includes rare, never before seen footage of Ray's animation test shots, great close ups of Ray's animation models, and great interviews with fans of Ray's that have been inspired by him and gone on to make amazing fantasy and sci movies themselves. Any true fan of Ray will love this documentary. A warning for American Harryhausen fans: this is a Region B only disc and will only play in European blu ray players. American Harryhausen fans like myself will either have to wait for its release in the US in a version playable on US blu ray players, or buy an all-region blu ray player, which runs about $130 from Amazon US. I went ahead and bought the all region player to watch the disc. Absolutely recommended blu ray for Harryhausen fans!!
Do you like Ray's work? Then this is worth it
Ray Harryhausen was one of the greatest stop motion animators. Ever.
What this documentary seeks to do, and succeeds, is discussing the man, the myth, the legend, and also brings in many directors and others in the film world who were inspired by Ray's work. These are fans who are part of the movie machine, and they all pay great respects to Ray.
I'm not sure the documentary has a ton of replay value, but it is without a doubt worth seeing for Harryhausen fans.
