Maysles Films has been the leading force in non-fiction film since the 1960's. Brothers Albert and David Maysles defined the modern documentary genre itself with the creation of a new approach to filmmaking known as Direct Cinema. A riviting, non-intervening view of life as it unfolds before the camera's eye. Their films, Salesman (1968), Gimme Shelter (1970) and Grey Gardens (1976) stand as acknowledged landmarks in the realm of documentary feature films. Maysles Films, Inc. has conceived and produced more than three dozen films, commissioned and non-comissioned. Their inspiration is forever derived from the drama and truth of the human experience.
