Holiday Gift Guide: Helvetica, the Movie

This one isn’t your average gift. For your artsy-fartsy friends (you know you got them), how about this quirky gift of a movie about Helvetica the typeface aka font. This movie is a historical perspective about the design and wide use of this popular font.

Need to see what the movie’s like? Some clips are available on YouTube.

If you like what you see or are interested in the background of Helvetica, you can order the movie on DVD from Amazon.
