God do I love this man’s skiing. But I have no desire to see this film. Not only is it similar to the art of flight, it copies it in pretty much every way! Camera angles, similar music, identical editing. Blaaaah.
Disagree about seeing the film…should be pretty legit. Agree on the Art of Flight comment though…Few Words “borrows” too much from it. Though I think it’s important to point out Candid Kamera 1 and 2 were shot / edited / mixed with this same style and released well before AOF…so he was the original. Sadly that fact will be lost on most non-skiers.
Guy is a boss among bosses. Holy shit.
So based on this logic you won’t watch any ski films this year because pretty much every ski/snowboard film follows the same formula? Seriously, every year just about every production claims to be original, but it really is just like every film you’ve ever seen, but in the end who cares, they call it ski porn for a reason, it’s the skiing/snowboarding that’s important, not the editing.
As long as the movie has a large skiing to helicopter follow cam of another helicopter ration I’m down with it
he is the most fluid skier in history. i hate when people get in lame arguments about style, but his is undeniable. his films are so tight and as far as being derivative of AOF, fuck that noise. he was doing slider shots of wildlife well before t.rice got his hands on those planet earth cameras. cant wait. thanks unofficial.
Best skier in the world. No doubt about it

I remember seeing Candide in “Mind the Addiction” around 10 years ago….Candide is one of the only guys (JP Auclair also comes to mind) who was around towards the beginning and continues to progress the sport today. Jah!!!!
I am going to the World Premiere in Paris on the 20th of October. Stoked!
