Joris Ivens
Joris Ivens' contributions to the development of documentary filmmaking are multitudinous. His editing style employed the principles of Russian montage editing, at the same time displaying an impressionistic lyricism, often focused on continuity of movement, which remains unsurpassed. His sound films often utilized a dialectical relationship between sound and image, and several times he enjoyed significant collaborations with literary artists. Although he has been faulted for using too many re-enactments in his documentaries, the ultimate force of his work overshadows such criticisms.
