Documentary on the Documenter

Published: April 22, 2019, 9 a.m.

Marion Stokes famously recorded TV news 24 hours a day for 35 years. When she passed away in 2012, she left behind over 70,000 VHS tapes containing hours and hours of footage. Filmmaker Matt Wolf set out to document this obsessive documenter in his new film, "Recorder: The Marion Stokes Project," which will premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival later this month. And then, the Crew talks about one of Wolf's earlier films "Teenage" and recollects their own tender years.
