High jinks for mightysmall

Have you seen the amazing documentary "Man on wire" yet? We went on a mightysmall outing to the Cameo cinema yesterday (along with our friend and fellow creative, Chris Muir). The documentary is about the highwire walker Philippe Petit whose lifelong dream it is to step out between the twin towers. It more than lived up to its 5 star reviews. The clever combination of real footage, re-enacted sequences and stills, is beautifully crafted (It felt as if it was all in black and white but we can't actually remember if it was). The story of this illegal adventure is as good as any thriller. And the cast of charismatic real life characters reveal their story with all the drama you would expect of the passionate French.

And the oscar goes to...
