Grierson

  “This wonderful documentary brought me back to my early years at university where I had become a member of a film society and was very much influenced by these first films of the NFB and am so delighted to return to them after seeing this doc.by Roger Blais.”

  “I watched "This Wonderful World" avidly on Scottish television when I was a child, but had never known the breadth or depth of John Grierson beyond the little television screen where he kept me enthralled, week after week, with fascinating glimpses at the rest of the world. The famous clip of ibex leaping to safety from cliff to cliff is one I have never forgotten, and I was pleased, if not entirely surprised, that it gets an explicit mention in this documentary, itself a fitting tribute to the originator of the documentary.”
