    Ansel Adams documentary DVD

    I'm probably the last guy on the forum to have seen this, but I finally watched it tonight and just in case somebody else didn't know about it, I can assure you it's well worth watching. Intensely interesting (not a how-to, it's a PBS video biography of the man and his work) and was extremely well done. A well-spent $14.00.

    I prefer the 1981 Ansel Adams: Photographer directed by John Huszar. Ric Burns relied on some authorities rather far removed from Adams. The earlier film included Adams and friends in person. A 1957 made for TV film is also interesting.

    Do you have a title for this?
    When I was 16 I thought my father the stupidest man in the world; when I reached 21, I was astounded by how much he had learned in just 5 years!
