Grierson Awards : ウィキペディア英語版 | Grierson Awards The Grierson Awards celebrate innovative and exciting new documentary films. The awards have been set up by the Grierson Trust to commemorate the life and work of world-renowned documentary filmmaker John Grierson. The awards were first set up in 1972 and have run annually. In 2000 the Grierson Trust forged a link with the UK Film Council in order to expand the awards and add more prestige to the awards. The awards have grown in stature and recognition over the years and now are "more important (than ever). They have an impressive list engaging with a broad palette of styles and subjects from disabled people looking for love to asylums, Russian billionaires and global warming." ==John Grierson== John Grierson is widely considered to be the godfather of documentary film, he has also been attributed to have coined the name "documentary".〔Ann Curthoys, Marilyn Lake (Connected worlds: history in transnational perspective, Volume 2004 ) p.151. Australian National University Press〕 He was born in Scotland in 1898. Grierson was the founder of a new movement of documentary film in the 1930s. He started the Empire Marketing Board Film Unit, and in 1933 the GPO Film Unit, gathering together such diverse and exciting talents as Humphrey Jennings, Paul Rotha and Alberto Cavalcanti. His ground-breaking work on the Scottish herring fleet, ''Drifters'', had its premiere in 1929 alongside the first British showing of Sergei Eisenstein’s ''Battleship Potemkin''. In 1936, he produced the celebrated ''Night Mail'', directed by Harry Watt with script by W.H. Auden and score by Benjamin Britten.
