The subject's story is told almost exclusively with examples of his art--which, given the visual nature of the project, is the wisest of all cinematic choices. The film was originally made in Switzerland in 1940, and released in a considerably longer version than its present 68 minutes. The material was picked up for US release ten years later, and re-edited by Robert Snyder. Titan: The Story of Michelangelo was the winner of the "Best Feature-Length Documentary" Academy Award. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
