Customer Reviews of Style Wars
Must have for all graffiti writers It is always good to see what came before you. This movie is great for people who are just starting to write and for people who have been writing. This movie shows how graffiti came about. It is like a lesson in the history of graffiti. It is a great way to see how all the different writing styles got started, how it got started, and why people do it. Style Wars show graffiti off in a new light which enables people who do not understand graffiti, to understand. I would say this movie is for any writers, artists, and anyone who is interested in hip-hop culture.
History Of HipHop
This is how it all started...that what HIP HOP was all about...the elements were the key to keep this movement growing...GRAFFITI and Breakdancing is focused in this DVD.

Undisputed Heavyweight Champ of Hip-Hop Documentaries
In 1983; director Tony Silver, and producer Henry Chalfant dropped this bomb upon the unsuspecting (except for those lucky enough to live in NYC at the time) populus via PBS. The world was exposed to true urban art, and it's unlikely Picasso's- the bombers and taggers of NYC's resilient subway system. Not only that, but also to 'acrobatic body dances like breaking', and to rocking the mic. This is so much more than just a documentary about the evolution of graffiti. It is truly a time capsule, full of unforgettable characters, stuffy bureaucrats, and the chaotic urban landscape of early 80's NYC. There are so many memorable lines and incredible characters indelibly etched in my brain from this film. Just writing this review makes me want to run over to the DVD player and watch it over and over again. I would gladly pay the price of admission (approximately $25) just for the film. However, our good friends at Plexifilm have once again delivered the goods, including a staggering 3.5 hours of bonus footage to accompany this one-of-kind historical document. The bouns footage includes 32 artist galleries, interviews, trains, and ultra-rare photos from the best-of-the best, including: Skeme, Seen, Frosty Freeze, Dondi, Blade, Rammellzee, and many others. This is a must have document for Hip-Hop heads, historians, social anthropologists, and cool people. Buy this now and support good art.
