| User ReviewMArk BAnother pretentious, imprenetrable, and actually pretty worthwhile lost gem of British avant-garde cinema recently dug up by BFI. A meditation on time and encroaching apocalypse through use of dodgy old video technology and even older TV clips, narrated over with a mesmeric relentlessness. I liked it. I liked it more than pretty much anything Derek Jarman ever produced. This is my first experience of Jane Arden's work, and I think I shall be exploring still further soon. See, I'm a sucker for genuinely nihistic films. This is that all right. |
| User ReviewGary TVarious well known philosophies stung together incoherently does not a masterpiece make. It looks like a student undergrad art film project, and even if that were true, not from an A student. Sorry but it's just pretentious and bad. Why on earth its released on blu-ray is beyond me |
