<-- back "In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni" remains the most fulminant argument against cinema that we're aware of. At the same time, it's probably the most unsentimentally sentimental film we've ever seen, the unlikely culmination of dada, punk, negative dialectics, class struggle, revolutionary disobedience and severe alcoholism in a single long gesture in which Debord triumphantly admits defeat. But then, every once in a while, one should take a fresh look at it, as it's not unlikely that over time, some of its ideas will lose or change their meaning, while certain others, or entirely new ones, may come to the surface. Preceded by Edie Sedgwick in Warhol's "Poor Little Rich Girl", it's going to be a slightly different story anyway, even though her portrait is not intended to serve as the first part of a double feature, rather as an animated wallpaper or screensaver. Get a drink, move around, half of it is out of focus anyway. The film keeps hovering about halfway between the spectacle (consumimus: the star, fashion, the private apartment) and its negation (consumimur: the dropout, drugs, the reclamation of dead time), and we hope that we can keep the image suspended in that state, rather than make it collapse one way or the other. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- prⅳate cinema berlin u kottbusser tor sunday, september 27, 8:30 pm poor little rich girl andy warhol 1965 67 min https://0xdb.org/0209246/info in girum imus nocte et consumimur igni guy debord 1978 95 min https://0xdb.org/0240610/info teasers (in german): www.piratecinema.org/screenings/20050529 www.piratecinema.org/screenings/20071021 12 seats, rsvp first come first serve location in separate mail -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- () >< prⅳate cinema berlin www.piratecinema.org <-- back |
