A peerless film portrait of a major if under-recognized Hollywood moviemaker, "Val Lewton: The Man in the Shadows" elegantly encompasses the work and career of a producer who doggedly transcended the seeming limitations of B-movie production and horror-genre scripts and made a unique body of work in American cinema. As conceived by writer-director and film critic Kent Jones, the documentary is paced like a Lewton film and allows viewers a vivid sense of what his movies feel and sound like.
