Stella at 20: An Atari 2600 Retrospective - Vol. 2

Over the course of August 1997, interviews were shot for a video documentary entitled Stella at 20: An Atari 2600 Retrospective. The founders of Atari, the original engineers, the famous programmers, and some lesser known programmers were gathered together to look back on the system that launched the home videogame industry. Volume 2 focuses on the individual programmers, their background, and in-depth discussions of the games they created, covering all eras of the system.

Directed by Glenn Saunders, Stella at 20: An Atari 2600 Retrospective - Vol. 2 leans on a strong ensemble — Al Miller, David Crane, Larry Kaplan — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1999.
