How Peter Jackson FOOLED an Entire Country

Описание: Before The Lord of the Rings Peter Jackson made Forgotten Silver – a documentary about long-lost New Zealand film-maker Colin Mackenzie. Unlike Peter Jackson’s Beatles and war documentaries, when Forgotten Silver aired in New Zealand in 1995, it triggered a national outrage. This video essay looks at this key part of Peter Jackson’s filmography from before The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, King Kong and Bad Taste, that has mostly been forgotten.
