7 August 2022
Running through the film are reenactments of interviews that IEEE did with Shannon in the 1980s. In the film, those scenes are re-created with actors in Shannon's actual home in Winchester, Massachusetts, which was arranged to look as it had when he lived there. He died in 2001.
Shannon emerges as a shy, playful, curious man who didn't seek fame or much care what people thought of him. But his achievements speak for themselves, and he is certainly a person whom anyone who uses a smartphone or computer should know about. The Bit Player is the perfect title for this informative and fun film.
