This is one of the worst, most moronic, simple-minded, psychobabble riddled, full-of-baloney documentaries I have ever seen. Howard Suber, who is supposedly a college professor, talks about movies at a third-grade level. He relies on the most banal and insipid American films that only fanboys consider worthy to punctuate his misguided and pedantic viewpoints on film. Sitting through this insufferable nonsense will only make you more ignorant about movies, the world and existence. Suber is like the Mr. Rogers of film commentators. He completely misses the point of movies. I've only sat through two episodes of this horrible series and I will not sit through more. Shame on TCM for showing this worthless series. I already feel stupider for having watched it.
