David Kennard: 40 Years of Nonfiction Hits
This interview with A Year in Burgundy writer/director/producer David Kennard by novelist and filmmaker Terence Clarke ran in the Huffington Post Culture section May 8, 2012.
"I like doing two types of film," David Kennard says. "One in which I try to channel, if you will, the wit and wisdom of some sort of expert. The other in which I am trying to synthesize a lot of people's opinions about something into something that's my own. And I love doing both."
A fine example of the second option is Kennard's newest project, A Year in Burgundy, a documentary in which he visits six vintners in the Burgundy region of France. It is rich, humorous, authoritative and, when the harvest moments come, very suspenseful. The grapes need to be harvested at exactly the right moment, and the compelling question is, are we correct in the moment we have chosen?
