Raiders!: The Story of the Greatest Fan Film Ever Made by Alan Eisenstock

4.0

The closing film of the Milwaukee Film Festival in 2015 was a documentary titled Raiders! which told the story of a youthful attempt to make a shot-for-shot remake of Raiders of the Lost Ark, and the struggle to shoot the last scene more than two decades later. It was hugely interesting and fun and led to my wanting to read this book, which fleshes out the backstory of how the film came to be made. I really enjoyed reading this book and sacrificed some sleep to finish it. I'm glad I got to read it before seeing the actual remake of the film, which I will be receiving shortly in the mail after making a donation to the filmmakers. I guess you could say I'm a fan!
