Review of Man with a Movie Camera (1929) by Alan Z — 10 Nov 2013
A ground-breaking experimental masterpiece. Images beautifully told with a witty editing. Overworked camera angles; a thorough use of the slow-motion, and a bizarre but suberb use of stop-motion. This concept of capturing daily aspects of a society give authentic art to the story told through real images.
Life never was so meticulously shown. That is the greatness of this work; the real films are our lives, and the expressions of a human being can be so marvelously engraved. 'Man with a Camera" is a very unique film in which anything can be art if you have skills and a broad knowledge about life and its motion.
