Title: "Powder" power
Review: Miraculously, filmmakers Arnie Reisman and Ann Carol Grossman have dodged all the pitfalls of what passes for most documentaries today and have made "The Powder and the Glory" a witty, informative, and highly credible look at two remarkable, eccentric, and insanely influential women. Not only do they tell a complex story about the birth of an industry and the driven divas who were its midwives, but they do so through clever animation, passionate witnesses, and well-chosen clips, stills, and music that provide subtlety as well as narrative. Plus -- unlike the real cosmetics industry -- not a single rabbit or other animal was killed, injured, or even involved in the making of this highly entertaining film.
