My teacher should be so proud. :)

Research! (I love my school)

A documentary about the most common font in the world...Next up; "Comic Sans: It's Not Funny Anymore."

How nerdy can I get? How about watching a movie about a font?

Watching in Digital Communications

A great documentary about something we often don't give a lot of thought to. Made me reconsider my reliance on Times New Roman, and further appreciate the modern-looking typeface I've seen (and loved) in my travels across Europe (which I had previously not been able to identify). Not afraid to say it—I love Helvetica.

Seen it before, but love it so I watched it again. Typography is such a fascinating topic!

The history of the Helvetica typeface is airing on TVO tonight.

This is spectacular! I don't know why I thought a documentary about a typeface would be interesting, but it totally is. I'm typing in it right now, and so are you. But we're NEVER thinking about it... more

This is spectacular! I don't know why I thought a documentary about a typeface would be interesting, but it totally is. I'm typing in it right now, and so are you. But we're NEVER thinking about it. There's a culture behind it. And a politics. And an aesthetics. Attention: Nerd Rambling

Loving the movie... I've always been an "almost fan" of the helvetica, but the Capital "R" is so ugly!

Finishing things I once started but never completed.

Finally watched this! Type nerds unite... amongst yourselves. I'll watch from the sidelines.

Turns out, there are people who get very angry by the existence of the typeface Helvetica. Who knew?

Why haven't I watched this film earlier in life?!

Finally getting around to watching this

I know I'm late to the party on this one. I love the clean simplicity of Modernism and Helvetica.

Friday night and I'm watching a documentary. About a typeface. Alone. This is what it's come to.

This is actually pretty interesting.

Watching this on Netflix Instant, drinking smirnoff coffee, and doing laundry. Trying to do a lazy Friday.

I love design documentaries! I also love Amazon Prime free OnDemand!

I'm watching Helvetica, a nice documentary on calligraphy (thanks @trueMisterX)

A history of Helvetica has me going hmmm. It's ubiquitous, transparent, and neutral. The typeface alone conveys nothing, but the content and meaning is in it's text, and that is where it's beauty... more

A history of Helvetica has me going hmmm. It's ubiquitous, transparent, and neutral. The typeface alone conveys nothing, but the content and meaning is in it's text, and that is where it's beauty and power live. Being and working with designers in the past, I never really appreciated Helvetica, until now.

Am I really watching a documentary on a font?

Why am I watching a documentary about fonts? #idontknoweither

You have to breathe so you have to use Helvetica. —Erik Spiekermann

this movie's really interesting but makes me super sleepy

Just as background noise while I work. I've already seen it like 5 time :p

Anyone who knows me knows of my strong feelings for Helvetica. I can get, and have gotten, down-right mean in my conviction. Watch this movie, and you may feel the same.

Finally got around to finishing this great documentary on a fantastic typeface. :)

Can't believe a 90-minute film about font can be interesting
