    Russ Anber is in it as a longtime friend which is pretty cool considering he was just announced one of the inductees into the International Boxing Hall of Fame this coming June at Canastota

          i’m just circling back to this. I’m not familiar with cinematography? What does that mean exactly ? Like the camera work or what aspect of the movie? How do you think they could’ve improved on it?

            If you are he then I apologize for rough tone. I use sports bar speech around here for fun but out of respect, because you do seem to be a total badass and good dude, I'll clean up and apologize.


            I mean this as respectfully as possible but I do believe if I ran the same clips through an AI and told it to build a doc it'd do about as well.

            The out of order story telling is a choice.
            The clips inside the television. I assume where done that way for IP or resolution but there's just a world of better choices than filter and tiny screen.
            Pretty sure i can produce the same quality of graphics on an Amiga 4000

              so I’m guessing that you actually watched the video in full? I mean I’m no filmmaker so I have no opinion on details either way, but
              Seem to me that overall he did a good enough job.

                PS: Hall of Famers Ron Borges, Russ Anber and Roy Jones are in it plus Larry Barnes, Shannon Briggs, etc.

                honestly, I didnt mind the aspect of it where he had the film showing on a TV, as you mentioned. Ive seen that technique before, I didnt mind it. There were a couple minor mistakes that only someone very familiar with boxing in Hartford would have caught

                    UPDATE: the movie is showing on Tubi and is also on prime now. Also, if anyone doesn’t have one of those and would want to see the movie, let me know and I can give you a link to the movie on YouTube where it’s on the channel of mine where it is set to unlisted so I would have to give you the actual link to watch it because you won’t be able to search for it
