Movie Reviews

New Yorker - 8/10 by Richard BrodyCornell sees the very fact of popular movies, with their original and epochal power of limbic haunting, as an essential and irreducible art.
User Review - 10/10 by Tio BSee everything you can by Joseph Cornell, and bear in mind that he was doing this stuff before Maya Deren, Kenneth Anger, Stan Brakhage, Ken Jacobs, and Bruce Conner.
User Review - 10/10 by David SI believe that all of the footage of Hobart, actually, is from "East of Borneo" and the rest from one or more nature documentaries. This was originally made for Cornell's private viewing and is a marvelous document of an obsession. Allegedly, at the first public screening, Salvador Dalí kicked over the projector and accused Cornell of having stolen the movie from his dreams.
User Review - 10/10 by Daryl CAlthough there are many to choose from, this is just about my favorite movie, the ultimate surreal experience. Joseph Cornell took a minor "exotic" melodrama, and by reediting it, cutting it with stock footage, removing the sound and then placing a variety of different soundtracks on it (it turns out there were options that he left; the soundtrack used on the compilation Joseph Cornell DVD from the Voyager Foundation is the one that was used at Anthology Film Archives for years; the soundtrack included on the Treasures from American Film Archives DVD boxset is an alternative soundtrack that Cornell left), Cornell was able to create a perfect object of (irrational) contemplation, a motion picture "exquisite corpse". Just for the record: during the 1950s, Stan Brakhage, Larry Jordan and Ken Jacobs all worked as assistants to Joseph Cornell. They were all excited by ROSE HOBART when Cornell would show it to them; Jacobs was so excited that he asked Cornell if he could borrow the film, and Jacobs took it and then showed it to his friend, Jack Smith. As Jacobs has said, they were all so amazed by the film that they ran it backwards, forwards, upside down, with soundtrack A, with soundtrack B, and silent. They couldn't get enough of it! I think that anyone who sees ROSE HOBART will understand why.
User Review - 10/10 by Sachiko HJoseph Cornell's "found footage" - extraordinary
User Review - 8/10 by Bass 9no plot, but catchy music and cool images. Yes, this is a very simple review but what else can I say?
User Review - 6/10 by Eric HRose Hobart is a remarkable film. His juxtapositions, editing and choice of music seem at first random, cluttered and even a little sloppy.But that is what gives in a dream like feel.
User Review - 6/10 by Caitlin AI appreciated the idea behind it, but it just felt superficial and slick to me.
User Review - 4/10 by John MPointless and plagiarizing. Have you ever watched a movie and said â??Hey, [insert actor's name] was really good, but the rest of the movie was rubbishâ??? Well, thatâ??s what it feels the director said here after watching the movie East of Borneo. Itâ??s just scenes that have Rose Hobart in them from the movie East of Borneo filtered blue and scored with music the director found in a junk shop. I have never seen the movie East of Borneo, and this experimental short makes no sense at all without it and out of context. Itâ??s not even a movie, really, itâ??s more of loop reel for somebody who has a hard-on for this actress. Thereâ??s really not a whole lot I can say, as this is just a meaningless exercise in futility.
