Cleanin' Up The Town: Remembering Ghostbusters (12A)
Directed by Anthony Bueno
4*
TWELVE years in the making, this labour of love celebrates how and why the original Ghostbusters has become a much-loved classic.
Film-makers and siblings Anthony and Claire Bueno interviewed people involved in the film, from cast to crew, to get an insider's view on how this ground-breaking comedy sci-fi, written by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis and directed by Ivan Reitman, came to be made.
It is gripping and eye-opening to see and hear the cast and special-effects crew reminiscing, particularly accounts of how they had to deliver in record time as post-production was cut short by six months.
