I work in film but I never went to film school so any time there is a great piece of cinema history that's usually something I'm into. This popped up on Netflix and I sat down to watch an episode and ended up watching all 3 episodes. It's a great piece and it added a lot of depth to movies I have seen, and gave me a list of movies to go check out, knowing more of the story behind them.
