This film about modern American painters working in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s is much better than any of the others I have seen to date. No curators, no art history Ph.D.s attempting to demonstrate that they are experts. Instead, the primary focus here is upon the views of artists themselves and what they take themselves to be doing. I found the interviews with Rauschenberg, William de Kooning, Barnett Newman, Jasper Johns, Frank Stella, Helen Frankenthaler, Andy Warhol, and many other working artists incredibly insightful. There are a few other people interviewed (collectors, gallerists, etc.), but they are happily not of the pedantic sort which I have seen in most other films on the topic. Highly recommended.
