When Mark Dintenfass arrived in Fort Lee in 1910, the sleepy New Jersey town just a ferry ride away from Manhattan was already a favorite location for nickelodeon-era filmmakers. Why not, he reasoned, build a studio and save on the expense and hassle of travel across the Hudson? Purchasing land and a building in nearby Englewood Cliffs, Dintenfass founded the Champion Studios, where he produced silent westerns and Civil War epics.
Others followed, and soon there were movie studios all over Fort Lee. Sadly, the land rush proved to be a bubble that burst when the American film industry moved west to Hollywood. Based on Richard Koszarski’s book, Fort Lee, the Film Town, The Champion tells the story of that brief golden age and of a modern-day fight to save the era’s last remaining studio — reminding us that the preservation of cinema history involves more than just the restoration of the films themselves.

« Un ovni dans le paysage audiovisuel : une œuvre à part, belle et crispante, qui dynamite les mécanismes de création habituels. » - Les Inrockuptibles
Peter Watkins a réalisé une fiction sur la Commune comme un documentaire contemporain pour, dit-il : "Insuffler à l’histoire figée des historiens, l’énergie épique de l’immédiateté".
Pour raconter la Commune il montre une télévision aux ordres (Télévision Nationale Versailles) qui débite des informations lénifiantes, tandis qu’une télévision libre jaillie du Paris insurgé s’efforce de capter la fureur populaire.
