Drew: The Man Behind the Poster (2013)

Documentary, Biography


This is a very watchable documentary with an interesting (and I will say it, colorful) person who deserves his success and accolades. I am embarrassed to admit that I had not heard of Drew Struzan. This documentary remedied that deficiency with an impressive amount of interviews and artwork. I have been admiring his art for years without knowing that it was all due to one artist's effort. It is true, the industry may suffer with Mr. Struzan retired from poster art. However, his talent is obviously alive and thriving with the artwork that accompanies the closing credits to this documentary. The listing (in the credits) of his poster artwork is mammoth. I wish him well and thank him for sharing his talent with the movie-going public for so long.
