Despite the fact that I generally agree that 3D distracts more from a film experience than it contributes, I have to recommend that if you ever get the opportunity to see Werner Herzog's 'Cave of Forgotten Dreams' in 3D that you do so.
The 3D video captures qualities of the cave paintings you'd never realize in 2D.
And virtually no person alive is going to get to see these paintings in person so it's the closest you'll ever get.
- leephillips 9y agoI just hope that some day someone gets the chance to make a documentary about these cave paintings that focuses more on the paintings and less on the filmmaker's emotional reactions.
- DubiousPusher 9y agoHehe, yeah even for a auteur director Herzog is pretty self involved.
- Tomte 9y agoAlso Pina by Wim Wenders. Yes, it's about a strange form of ballet (Tanztheater). In the director's commentary – which you should really watch, if only to understand what's going on – Wim Wenders tells a bit about 3D cameras, their challenges and opportunities and how much they improved so that he felt comfortable using them "for real" for the first time.
