112 Weddings Wedding videographer Doug Block has shot 112 weddings since he decided documentary filmmaking was not going to pay the bills. But the itch to tell stories on screen was always with him. In his new documentary, “112 Weddings,” Block checks back with a handful of couples years after the big day to see what happened after the bliss wore off… and what it means for the idea of marriage itself. “112 Weddings” airs on HBO tonight.
