Part biography, part autobiography, Mark Wexler’s film goes inside his relationship with his father, legendary cinematographer and filmmaker Haskell Wexler. Alternately humorous and tragic, the film is a bumpy ride with moments of great depth and revelation along the way. Haskell is an abrasive character but manages to endear himself to viewers even as he challenges his son’s choices about camera placement, lighting and storytelling. In this personal cinematic achievement, Mark resists the easy road and allows the complexity of his feelings and his father’s artistry to shine.  PB
