Pick of the Week

"Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid" (1982)- Director Carl Reiner uses footage from classic's like "The Maltese Falcon" inter-cut with footage of Steve Martin as a private eye in this spoof of the Hollywood film noir genre. Not only is it a treasure trove of film history but it's also a great tool for any filmmaker trying to understand how to "cheat" shots.
