THE GEORGETOWN LOOP

by Ken JACOBS
1997 / 35mm / b&w / silent / 1S / 11' 00




Here is a master piece that's 11 minutes long. Elegantly reworking some 1905 footage of a train trip through the Colorado Rockies, the dean of radical filmaking printed the original image and its mirror side by side to produce a stunning widescreen kaleidoscope effect. Did it really take 100 years of cinema for someone to execute this almost ridiculously simple idea? «This landscape film deserves an X rating!» says Jacobs...»- J.Hoberman, «Best of Film 1996, The Village Voice»
