Albert Maysles April 2011.mov

An April, 2011 "documentary" on documentary film pioneer Albert Maysles. After he spoke about his career and screened clips from "Gimme Shelter," "Grey Garden," and his Muhammad Ali film, the great director greets his audience. His technique was called "direct cinema," just turn the camera on the subject and let the story unfold. This is what I tried. He used 16mm film, I used an iPhone 4.
