One Man’s Documentary

A Memoir of the Early Years of the National Film Board

Graham McInnes (Author), Gene Walz (Editor)

McInnes’s memoir of these “days of high excitement” is an insider’s look at the NFB from 1939 to 1945, a vivid “origin” story of Canada’s emerging world-class film studio that provides the NFB with the kind of full-bodied vitality usually associated with the great Hollywood studios in their golden years.
