Netflix pick for 5/27/13 – ‘Side By Side’

“Side  By Side” is an interesting documentary produced by Keanu Reeves that explores the evolution of digital photography and compares it to the ole reliable stalwart of excellence that is 35 mm film, and just like the title implies, they go through a side by side comparison of the two technologies, along the way interviewing a who’s who of Hollywood filmmakers to get their input from their hands on experiences with both techs.

Keanu actually makes for a good host and guide through this world, as he has access to so many different people who can give him some great insight, and since this is a movie, the many examples they use of film work and digital video work gets very interesting as the movie progresses and digital video starts catching up.

So check out this documentary here on the ole Netflix Instant and enjoy!
