Bridges-Go-Round (Shirley Clarke - 1958)

[@edjackson2083]

Met Shirley in the 80’s when she was teaching at Ucla Film school. Always surrounded by students and she was very intense and passionate about her craft.

"Watching the two versions of Clarke' s film can create vastly different impressions because each score emphasizes different elements of the images: the jazz score underlines the pace of editing and the camera movement, whereas the electronic score highlights the abstract patterns created by the images of bridges." - Film art a Critical Introduction by Maria Pramaggiore & Tom Wallis

[@armo147]

that runtime is a tease. the video plays twice

[@gregae7366]

That's part of the actual film, though. the first time it plays, the music is jazzy. The second time, it's more electronic music. Both give a different feel and emotion to what is being shown visually. I personally preferred the first version, it had a more haunting and gripping effect.
