Ten Skies 2004
Watch the restoration HERE. Lossless blu-ray download available soon.
If you've followed me on this site for any length of time, you'll likely know my obsession with American filmmaker James Benning. Just yesterday I referred to him as the greatest American Filmmaker to ever live, and hinted at a Benning Project™️ I was working on. I expected it to take a lot longer than it did, but it turns out that my gaming PC is even more adept at rendering…

The Color of Pomegranates 1969

The Fire Within: Requiem for Katia and Maurice Krafft 2022
"...we discover images not only of volcanoes, but of landscapes that no one has ever shot like [the Kraffts]. Some of it has the quality of dreams."
Last night I saw Sara Dosa's Fire Of Love, an ultra-slick documentary about Volcanologists Katia and Maurice Krafft. Although the film itself felt a bit too calculated, the visuals left me awestruck. The images, moving and still, captured by the Kraffts across a lifetime dedicated to Volcanoes, are the most stirring, otherworldly and…
