Philippe has written and directed numerous award-winning films and documentaries, many of which take on the role of unpacking the most influential works of master filmmakers.

It is the first feature-length investigation into the art, craft, and influence of a single extraordinary scene.

Other past works include "Doc of the Dead," "The People vs. George Lucas," and an ongoing series of short films for The Criterion Collection titled "Double Exposure." Over the years, he has conducted numerous film analyses and written seminars at schools, universities, film festivals, and museums around the world, featuring in-depth deconstructions of classic and contemporary films.
