07/07/2018 One of my favorite documentaries of all time, and the only documentary I own on blu-ray! I've watched it countless times, and every time, I'm completely captivated. My dream job is to work, help, volunteer, hell, even be A SLAVE to the National Film Registry. I WANT TO SAVE FILM. My life would be complete if I could even assist in doing this on the weekends. I would move to Virginia just to VOLUNTEER to save film without a second thought. This documentary really opened up that whole world for me, and maybe that dream isn't completely out of reach. Regardless, this documentary is truly special, and definitely worth our time to watch it.
