Robert Fulton

About This Movie

So, Robert Fulton is this documentary that pays homage to a really interesting figure in experimental filmmaking. Made by Bruce Baillie, who co-founded Canyon Cinema, it feels very personal—like a love letter to a peer who left us too soon. The pacing is contemplative, letting you soak in Fulton's unique style while reflecting on his impact. The atmosphere is a mix of nostalgia and reverence, kind of bittersweet, since it was created for a screening of Fulton's work nearly a decade after his tragic death. It’s not flashy, but it has this raw authenticity that really captures the essence of what he contributed to the world of film. Definitely worth checking out for those who appreciate the nuances of documentary storytelling.
