‘The Hitch’ – Indie Christopher Hitchens Documentary
Are you a fan of Hitch? Of course you are. The below documentary was brought to my attention last week, and it’s wonderful. Kristoffer Hellesmark has managed to put together a lengthy film chronicling the life of the great late polemecist. It’s a superb blend of archive footage, Hitch voiceover from his autobiography audio book and Kristoffer’s own impressive visual style. Highly recommended. A thoroughly decent way to spend a Sunday in my opinion. Please share your thoughts in the comments section. Enjoy.
Kristoffer’s note:
I was looking for a documentary about The Hitch to watch but
I could never find one. I waited and waited. Finally I figured:
“Why don’t I just make one?”. That was the inspiration for this project.
I did not make it to gain financially as I do not own most of the
footage used.I simply wanted to in my own small way, further the legacy of Christopher Hitchens.
Thanks for watching.

It’s a wonderful documentary.
Hitch would have loved it. Good job.
The man was an inspiration, he still is an inspiration. The film is a good celebration of his public life.

That’s a great watch, thanks
I remember watching this not long after it was uploaded. I loved it. A beautifully constructed little project. Might have to give another watch shortly.
Well done , preching to the choir with me though. A truly great intellectual who should have been more mainstream,didn’t dilly dally with facts ,just tried to make them more palatable for the close-minded
