Documentary about dreamworks and disney...did I imagine it?

Post by Marce82 »

Ok...so this is a true story, let's see if someone can help me.

It must have been around 2000 or 2001... I was living in Argentina at the time, and was watching one of the channels that brings american films to latin america (Cinecanal). It was 10pm, and instead of a movie, they showed a documentary.

The documentary was about Jeffrey Katzenberg;s departure from Disney and how he took a lot of the artists with him and set up Dreamworks. I even remember the documentary started with black screens with text, interrupted with shots of the smoke (angel of death) coming down to kill the first borns from "The Prince of Egypt".

The next day I checked the cable magazine, and there was no mention of the documentary. i called my cable company, and they had no idea what I was talking about. I even checked the channel's website....nothing.

Has anyone else ever seen this? If so, do you know the name of this documentary? Or how to find it?

Hmmm...thanks, but that cant be it. That was made in 2005, and I saw mine around 2000, and it wasnt about the transition to CG...

:(

Anyone else??

Perhaps it was all a dream. ;)

On a serious note, perhaps it was an independent documentary financed by that (or another) channel? Either way, I'm afraid to say that I can't help you, as I have no knowledge of any Argentinian television. :p
