Marvelous 3D. Totally goofy movie: way too much blah blah blah outside the cave by experts. Some lamer throwing a spear ten feet. Etc. Jumled repetitious clips of the art; little or no good depiction of the layout of the cave. Way too little discussion of the painting/drawing techniques.

Beautiful to see, a snorer to watch.

I really enjoyed it myself and have now bought the dvd. If you've not already come across it, may I recommend 'The Cave and the Cathedral' by Amir D. Aczel. My copy is a library book; reading it has considerably increased my knowledge of cave art in France and Spain. He writes quite a bit about the work of Abbe Henri Breuil (among others). An absorbing read.
