Fascinating and sweet
30 January 2020
This documentary is about Harold and Lillian Michelson, two folks who are not household names but who have been very influential in the movie industry. This documentary covers both their lives in the industry as well as their personal lives. The fact that the two really adored each other makes this documentary a joy to watch.

Harold's claim to fame in Hollywood was story boarding and later as head of the art department. This meant that his vision of what scenes should look like often is what you see on the screen and many folks in the film sing his praises. As for Lillian, she was a researcher who ran a department who looked up anything and everything in films. Together, they made a huge mark in films.

Overall, the film works well because there's so much affection in the picture...both between the couple and with other folks in the industry telling what nice and wonderful folks they were. Overall, a nice little picture...one worth seeing.
