 Painting With Fire; 2 Disc Collector's Edition DVD Set November 2, 2008
William M. Floyd (Boston,Ma, , Matt., USA)
A Must Have for Frazetta Aficionados', A warm glance at the things he cherishes, takes note of as well as a glimpse of the challenges and stuggles he has met. It means to be simple without affectation of questionable intellectualism. And does succeed I think. Yet it is clear that his gifts remain undimmed by the trials visited apoun his health and times' nagging insistence that passionate men ought surrender to the inevitable. "It follows suit nicely" That just being himself brings out the genius of the human spirit in defiant efforts and heart felt play. It owns a four star rating naturally, super-naturally. It will be for others to raise it higher if such is needed. You have my own words herein in my attempt to do justice to it. It what it is, something of Frazetta.

Still cocky, Frazetta astounds us with his genius..along with an amazing group of fantasy illustrators. Some of the best. Worth watching, even if disappointed.
Not just for his fan following April 11, 2008

This the anatomy of an artist's life. The effort was well done, though not perfect. It's hard to make retrospective documentaries of personalities that are popular. Too glowing and the work looks like it's catering to the subject. Too honest and the feature will not meet approval with those followers. The balancing act is well done in this feature because it lets the artist, his family and friends, and surprisingly his peers and colleagues, all, carve out the narrative that is the artist's life, past and present. My favorite parts are Frank visiting his old friends in Brooklyn.
What really makes this documentary stand out is the way it balances Frank Frazetta's life with his work, his art and it's impact on both the fans, family and even the illustration community. There's little doubt that Frank Frazetta and his work have had a lasting impact on the popular arts and publishing. His championing of artists' and illustrators' rights alone has made publishers recognize the affect art has on selling products from cars to books and the way art will always belong to the artist regardless of what it's used for.
I recommend this for anyone interested in the artistic process as well as the life of an artist.

This guy has done some amazing work with art. It has most all his artwork through the years, but if you want to sit through some long moments of "where he came from", then you will enjoy it. I have only seen it one time from my collection of art DVD's.Havn't wanted to sit throught it again.
Im not sure if a teen could sit through this DVD. Buy used.
 Excellent Purchase December 18, 2007

Delivery came fast. It came through in great condition and secure packaging.
The DVD was very well done. Documented well with plenty of extras and pictures of Frank's life. The music was very cool, too. I wish it would have been made in a higher resolution, though. It had major grain issues and poor quality, but otherwise it's a great DVD with plenty of information about the life of Frank Frazetta.
