Excellent making of doc

Warning: Spoilers
This 31-minute retrospective documentary covers a lot of interesting and informative ground on the making of the British giant monster opus "Gorgo." Among the things we learn are that director Eugene Lourie was born in Russia and began his film career as a production designer, both Tokyo, Japan and Paris, France were initially considered as locations to set the story in, hydraulics were used to animate the monsters, the camera was over-cranked for the scenes of mass destruction, and this picture had its premiere in Tokyo, where it was a big hit. Moreover, several people in uncredited bit roles are also pointed out. Recommended viewing for fans of the film.
