dsl ◊ 2014-07-19 03:27	"The construction of a refinery on Kent’s Isle of Grain as seen through the eyes of those it affects and those who are responsible for it being there, all told in a predominantly positive light." My second building-an-oil-refinery film in a week after The Shetland Experience. I'll try not to make a habit of them ...

antp ◊ 2014-07-29 10:36	Why do all these vehicle have 2-star rating? I guess it is rather overrated...
dsl ◊ 2014-07-29 12:03	Easy - 3* if they're significant onscreen and/or featured in commentary, 2* if they're part of the action and do something which is the focus of the shot, 1* if they're just there in the background with no emphasis.
antp ◊ 2014-07-29 17:19	"part of the action", well indeed if they do something related to the documentary's subject... but that stills seem so many vehicles with a "role"
