A feature length documentary opening in cinema's 9th March 2017. Distributed by Transmission Films, "A Cinematic Life" charts the history of Australia's films and it's stars from the point of view of it's most revered film critic, David Stratton.
Weaving through this fascinating story, is David's very personal journey, from a childhood obsession with cinema, his journey to Australia from England as a 'Ten Pound Pom', to becoming an internationally renowned film critic. With interviews from artists such as George Miller, Geoffrey Rush & Nicole Kidman, at the heart of the film is the story of an industry whose growing pains David has witnessed over a lifetime. I shot this project with an ARRI Alexa & Cooke S4/i Primes.
