If you get a chance and have Netflix, I recommend watching Side by Side, a documentary about the history of digital technology in film as it begins to erode the dominance of celluloid film. It was produced and narrated by Keanu Reeves, who acts as an interviewer throughout the movie. I was impressed by his knowledge and his ability to draw out the narrative by asking those he was conversing with, (George Lucas, Martin Scorsese, the Wachowskis, et al,) and asking the right questions.
It's definitely worth watching even if you have only a passing interest in the subject matter, which is a quality I find in most of the very best documentaries.
Cheers.
