Hamilton's America (2016)
"A documentary about the creation of Hamilton offers a thrilling portrait of the theatrical hip-hop genius of Lin-Manuel Miranda." Variety
Good news: As Miranda's former college roommate, Horwitz had the unique opportunity and access to document the making of Hamilton from the very beginning. Some of you may remember Alex's video shout-out that opened our screening of the film in 2016. Scroll down to the media gallery to see Alex and his surprise message!
Bad News: This film is not available to watch in its entirety as it is locked away in the PBS vault.
More Good News: There are a wealth of film scenes (50m worth!) and exclusive images HERE on the PBS website. Also, these two reviews/articles are essential reads on the movie.
"An American Tale - Creating a Hamilton Documentary" Newsweek
New York Film Festival Review Variety
Autonomy (2019)
Join celebrated journalist and author Malcolm Gladwell as he leads the first comprehensive documentary dive into the world of automated vehicles—and the future. Autonomy engagingly explores self-driving cars, human ingenuity and the existential dread that accompanies this technology. Smartly straddling the line between techno-optimism and necessary caution, the film poses the inherent big questions: what is control and who do we become as we relinquish it to machines? D: Alex Horwitz, US, 2019, 1h20m
"New documentary Autonomy makes the convincing case that self-driving cars will change everything."
SXSW Review
"It’s a crash course on why Hamilton matters at all."
