Search: Directed by Shirley Clarke

A short and interesting novelty.

Clarke uses lyrical camera panning and superimposition to create a non-linear sense of movement.

Clarke at her most experimental, making a ‘dance’ without the use of dancers.

The dancer lacks the passion necessary to mirror the intensity of the bullfight.

You really believe that you are there with these people, living in their world.

Dance In The Sun has a single-pointedness of intention, perfectly executed.

Initiation is one of the most creative dance pieces I have ever witnessed.

Like a loving home video.

More contrived than Clarke's ‘pure dance’ shorts.

There are films that stick with you. Ones that make an impression even if it wasn’t a pleasant one. This is maybe one of those.

Clarke’s portrayal of Frost is loving and respectful, while also seeming to bring out the essence of the man.

Probably one of the most disturbing ‘issues’ films you could watch.

A strong selection.

Skyscraper shows a master filmmaker taking a seemingly random subject and re-creating it with a depth and sense of awe that enriches the world around us.

I was reminded of Steve Reich’s work.

A bit like watching geniuses goofing around on acid. Or sewing the seeds of the future.

Like a precursor to the Performance Art of Laurie Anderson.
