Another by Ernie, Signal: Germany on the Air. Also Jay Leyda’s A Bronx Morning. I don’t remember if People on Sunday has unaware pedestrians. Re Breathless, there’s a great production photo online showing the covered pushcart they put Raoul Coutard in to follow Belmondo and Seberg down the Champs Elysees. I think it’s on Paul Schrader’s Facebook page.
From: Steve Polta Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2013 5:38 PM To: Experimental Film Discussion List Subject: Re: [Frameworks] voyeurism / street photography in exp cinema Actually a number of Ernie Gehr's films do this, including the afore-mentioned Untitled: Part 1 (1981), This Side of Paradise, City (digital video) and his recently "released" digital video translations of street scenes filmed in the 1970s (or '60s?). Or even his Eureka if you want to go there. Also recommended: —Scott Stark's Acceleration and posers (which observes people posing or photographs) and others—Starks' Angel Beach anyone? —the late Stom Sogo's PS: When You Think You Are Going to Die observes muggings and drug dealing from a San Francisco apartment. Paranoid. —John Smith's The Girl Chewing Gum and it's follow up The Man Phoning Mum. —Gibbs Chapman & Catherine Lam narrativize surveillance footage in I know something is going on back there —Open by Katherin McInnis etc etc Steve Polta On Sat, Jan 26, 2013 at 4:17 PM, David Tetzlaff <djte...@gmail.com> wrote: So I'm assuming you're limiting your definition of 'street photography films' to those that feature images of people? Interesting then that you cite Dorsky in light of his (I thought bizarre) remarks after his screening at Views that the human figure was inherently un-poetic... Anyway, there's the Frampton walk-through-NYC film (forget the name), and if memory serves me correctly "Nightspring Daystar" may also fit the bill... Also parts of "The End". _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- No virus found in this message.
