"The first in a series of three exhibitions, Persol Magnificent Obsessions: 30 stories of craftsmanship in film, uncovers the first 10 of 30 stories of obsessive craftsmanship within filmmaking. The exhibits offer the opportunity to view rarely seen artifacts from some of cinema’s most iconic films, as well as behind the scenes research notes, sketches, video interviews and materials used in the development process by some of the world’s greatest filmmakers," goes the writeup on MovingImage.Us.
