I finally watched this documentary a couple of days ago. I was disappointed to be honest. It was much more of a history report on the mellotron and less of a documentary (which made it quite boring.) I understand what the "ecstatic truth" was behind the documentary (the mellotron is a prized instrument that is going extinct, digital technology is taking over analog and it's a shame, the mellotron used to be this exclusive thing that was very special and now anyone can/and does put mellotron sounds on their albums with the computer and it's sort of just a trendy thing now, etc.) but they weren't the main focuses of the documentary and they got really caught up with the whole "Well the m-300 differs from the m-400 because the m-400 was smaller, etc, etc, etc" (technical crap that you can find on a wikipedia page...) Also there was BARELY any music. They sampled some Moody Blues and some Genesis and that's about it. Still cool to see guys from a bunch of my favorite bands: Opeth, King Crimson, Änglagård (Mattias Olsson is sort of a strange guy haha), The Zombies, Yes, Genesis, The Moody Blues, etc.
