Why Adam Curtis is my favorite filmmaker.

Description

Adam Curtis is my favorite filmmaker, and here's why, in three reasons. One, style: his taste in music and image, and how he marries the two. Two, technique: he writes his films himself and edits them himself. Three, the biggest one, his subject matter. He shows how even the people who thought they were attacking the system, the radicals, the artists, the whole counterculture, became part of the trick, because they retreated into the same make-believe world. Which is why their opposition has no effect.
