Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very interesting
Review: It is fascinating to see from up so close the life of an artistic legend. There is also a good biography on him out recently (can't remember). Great footage and takes that I did not know existed. Strongly recommend it if you are a Giacometti fan or just interested in discovering more about him.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Giacometti lives
Review: To see the master alive and painting in his studio, walking the streets and meeting with friends is a rare privlege and worth the price of the ticket alone. This DVD has several documentaries explore the artist's work and life. The films include beautiful filmed sequences in the studio and marvelous details of the paintings. The post-war zeitgeist and atmosphere shines through many details and gives a context to Giacometti's research. Interviews with people who knew him show the man. Ecce Homo. Outstanding job, towers above most DVDs on artists.
