Label: Re:Voir

1949年ニューヨーク出身、69年以来35本以上もの映画を製作し世界中の映画祭で上演をしてきたアメリカの実験フィルムメーカーのドミニク・アンジェラム。Re:Voirが手掛けた82年〜2010年まで全119分に及ぶ9作品を纏めた初のDVD作品。まるで覚める事のない悪夢の様な、または複雑に入り組んだ迷宮の様な目まぐるしく交錯し続ける無数のイメージが続き、その歪んだ世界観に拍車を掛けるサウンドトラックと共に展開する激ヤバの映像。スタン・ブラッケージが激賞するのも納得の内容です。



“And in the midst of it all — the streets, the bridges, the roads, the roofs, the endless river of communication cables and the windowed monoliths of jutting superstructure — there stands man. The film is like a dream you can’t put your finger on and can’t forget, because the very truth of it is so evasive, suggestive, labyrinthine. And then it dawns on you, the very fact of life is heroic.”
-Ronald Sauer

“The concrete world of the American infrastructure and its demise are made strangely poetic in this expressionist documentary which shows the vacant San Francisco Embarcadero Freeway before its destruction. In an atmosphere of daylight, mystery, Angerame sows inklings and reveals the past encircled by the future. Lyrical, ominous, comic, Premonition works on the attentive viewer like a remembrance of something that is to happen, a silent, telling daydream.”
-Barbara Jaspersen Voorhees

“...the images of Continuum certainly haunt me. It was amazing to me how little evidence there was in the film of the Time in which it was made, or even the location. I found myself tending to forget that these were City-chores, that this was rooftop work, so forth: just the labor, the continuity of labor, timeless, and ongoing, withOUT inexorable. Bravo.”
-Stan Brakhage
