01/07/2012 Fantastic documentary about what must be the most famous cemetery in the world, Pere-Lachaise. The stories of the many visitors from all over the world who come to pay their respects to people long-dead, mostly artists, writers and composers, are very interesting indeed and the camerawork is just stunning. There are a few mis-steps i would say along the way - I didn't think the embalmer's sequence fitted in, but by and large this is great stuff - one of the most unusual and affecting documentaries I have seen in quite some time.
