Lee Unkrich directing Tom Hanks during a recording session for Toy Story 3
In today's issue of the San Francisco Chronicle there's an excellent profile of Toy Story 3 director Lee Unkrich. Written by pop culture critic Peter Hartlaub, the piece traces Unkrich's education and start in live-action filmmaking, his impact on Pixar, and his task in helming 'TS3'.
The article includes some quotes from creative chief John Lasseter, who personally directed the first two Toy Story movies, that highlight his confidence in Unkrich.

When you talk face to face with Lee, you can't help but notice his intensity —how much he cares about and respects the characters of Toy Story 3 and the series as a whole.

Toy Story 3 could not have been in better hands. How a Pixar film hasn't won Best Picture yet is beyond me.
True masterpieces.
