Attn: All Font Nerds!
Permalink Closed


I know there are several girls on this forum that are nerdy enough to enjoy this movie like I did.  wink  It's called "Helvetica" and it's about the history and controversy (who knew?!?) of the Helvetica font.  I got a big ol' nerdy kick out of it.

(If you have Netflix, you can watch it online.)

I want to see it. I think I'll watch it this weekend! Helvetica is very similar to Arial, which just happens to be my font of choice ;)

I've heard of this, but I haven't seen it. Wasn't there also an exhibit at the MOMA about Helvetica recently?

Ah sweet! I work in graphic design, so I am familiar with most fonts. I can't go anywhere without naming fonts on the street, business signs, commercials, etc. I am a font dork! :)
