Documentary filmmaker Les Blank has made some of the best films I've ever seen, and his film "A Well Spent Life" is another masterful doc!
The film takes place in Texas, and it revolves around the music and personality of musical performer Mance Lipscomb, and the environment surrounding him. We watch some interviews, done by Blank, himself, with the artist, and take a glimpse of the daily lives of Mance Lipscomb and the others that live around him.
The film is full of beautiful landscape shots, and wonderful music! Like a lot of other Les Blank masterworks, this is both a document of, and a celebration of the topic! It celebrates the land and the man, in a fascinating, enjoyable, and wonderful way!
Fans of other Blank films must see this! Even if you've never heard of Les Blank, you should still see it, as long as your a fan of music, love, and film!
