I remember watching a whole documentary about Helvetica. Font people, logo designers and sushi makers. | ||

That’s not “a whole documentary”, it’s a spectacular documentary. Documentary films are like nonfiction books: any subject can be fascinating when done well, any subject can be awful and banal when done poorly. I’m not even a huge non-fiction / documentary fan but I’ll die on the hill that telling true stories with depth and passion is much harder than doing great fiction. | ||

To be fair, the same guy also made a really great documentary about urbanism as part of that trilogy | ||
