Tell Them Who You Are

Mark Wexler's documentary on his legendary cinematographer father, Haskell Wexler. The film is interesting if you are a filmmaker, photographer, or cinema history buff. I met Haskell Wexler several years ago at a discussion on the future of film vs. digital formats in cinema, and he was much nicer to us than he is in this film to his son. Mark seems to be trying to pay homage to his father at the same time he is trying to get out of his father's rather huge shadow.

"Tell Them Who You Are" plays tonight at SIFF, 5:00 PM, Harvard Exit.
