5.0 out of 5 stars John K. Marshall: The Best We Got, April 19, 2011

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cinema of John Marshall (Visual Anthropology) (Hardcover)
Jay Ruby's overview of John K. Marshall's remarkable oeuvre featuring the San tribes of Namibia and Botswana, as well as his documentaries made in the USA is a good, if not insightful, account of what Marshall filmed over decades in southern Africa and the eastern USA. Marshall's is the camerawork that made Frederick Wiseman's Titicutt Follies the masterpiece it became. The late Richard Leacock said, "John Marshall is the most talented and under-appreciated documentary filmmaker of our generation." Ruby gives us a good introduction to the filmmaker.
