documentarian David Sutherland

An excellent profile.

I just finished watching his six-hour opus Country Boys on PBS (available on-line), a fascinating and openhearted look into a culture about as alien to me as tribal life in the Sahara desert.

Great stuff if you don't suffer from ADD.

To my chagrin, I haven't seen his previous work The Farmer's Wife, which my bro-in-law raves about, but I'll certainly be seeking it out now.
