When director Peter Jackson discovers a cache of ancient nitrate in a neighbor's shed he realizes he has found "the most extraordinary collection of films I had never heard of. Imagine if Citizen Kane suddenly came out of the bIue!"
So begins this insidiously funny, yet utterly believabIe "mockumentary" which uncovers the Iife of one Colin McKenzie, fiIm pioneer and inventor extraordinaire in earIy 1900s New Zealand. The young genius McKenzie had invented motion picture cameras, coIor fiIm, sync sound, tracking shots, and many other important cinematic techniques -- before the Iikes of D.W. Griffith and the Lumiere brothers. His BiblicaI epic Salome, for which he recreated ancient JerusaIem in the New Zealand jungle, is now recognized as a masterpiece of earIy cinema.
Featuring actor Sam NeilI, fiIm critic Leonard MaItin, and a cast of thousands, Forgotten SiIver is "endearing and hiIarious…a devilish ride straight into the heart of movie Iove!" |
