Helvetica *
Gary Hustwit, 2007
US
@ IFC Center
My melatonin levels must skyrocket at about 6:15 pm because invariably when I see a movie after work I'm tempted to catnap for about ten minutes at roughly that time, popping awake afterward and feeling wide awake until 1 am or whenever I fall asleep. I had a particularly acute case of this last Monday when I saw Helvetica, which is really too bad because I liked it quite a bit. Specifically I liked the feeling I had upon leaving the theater, of my senses being a little sharper for the time spent gaining insight into the design of the world around me.
Note: I've managed for some reason to see each of the three films Gary Hustwit has released theatrically as a producer or director, including as well the Wilco documentary, I Am Trying to Break Your Heart, and Moog. It just strikes me as an interesting coincidence.
