This was by far one of the best and more interestingly put together documentaries I have ever seen. To me, it felt more like a portrait than a documentary in that it had no intention of telling a linear story of Milford Grave's life and career, but rather focused on short bursts of archival footage which illustrate central themes in the subject's work.
The editing is inventive and totally in sync with the pacing of the film and with Milford's playing and speaking. When I was told that the film has no voices or music besides Graves' I wasn't sure how well that would keep my attention for an hour and a half. The pacing of the film, however, kept me interested and wanting more. The archival footage is amazing and is seamlessly interwoven with present-day interviews.
