DNF so won’t rate.

Oof I did not like this at all. He was coming off pretty annoying, glad I gave up early.

Absolutely loved it. Listened to the audiobook which I feel like enhanced the experience because of how unique his manner of speaking and writing is. He revisits a lot of his programme work and says less about his actual life than expected, but it was still fascinating to hear about what led up to those iconic programs and hear little behind the scenes tidbits. The whole book was eloquently written, thoughtful and a great insight into his philosophy of documentary making.

2.5 stars. I found it a hard read and felt that it was quite dull at points. I definitely prefer his documentaries.
