Yeah, Bjork was wonderful and made that film. It just wouldn’t have been the same without here.
I would have jumped at that one, love Godard, although I haven’t been keeping up with his work. Any opinion of Farocki?
As a person? He was an extremely intelligent and polite person. He even offered to critique the production course videos of a few of us undergrads (thanks to my professor who arranged it).
He liked mine, which covered similar topics to Sarah Polley’s - Stories We Tell (mine was made in 2001/2002 and more stream-of-conciousness video than documentary, about knowing my mother through the filtered recollections of others).
One of my professors earned her doctorate by defending her thesis on his film Images of the World and the Inscription of War, and was the one who arranged the class he taught.
Images is rather dry, but to me, fascinating. Videograms of a Revolution is about the fall of the Ceaușescu regime told through footage from the television station where the opposition party was based.
He showed us a few of his shorts, like As You See, Still Life, and I Thought I was Seeing Convicts, too.
Into the gif safe with that one!
The security technician called to notify me that he is en route.
What’s that? A Spicer password?
von Trier’s best work was Riget
Any chance we can get a Trump executive order against safe opening?
I think he’ll sign anything someone puts in front of him… so yes.
