Noodle Spinner

1974 · 11 min

Noodle Spinner takes some basic documentary footage of a Chinese noodle spinner and then loops, split, reduces and staggers it to present a series of multiple-image collages in motion: in an inventive way the film's form thus resembles the process it was seeking to represent.

Phoelix

Phoelix · 1979

An aged art connoisseur (Beaumont) and his young female neighbour (Coles), who has a job posing naked in a club, meet and exist in fantasy and reality. Although this raises certain much-discussed questions about the nature of representation, and about the construction of narrative and daydreams in films, 'Phoelix' tends to treat these as just pretty and pertinent issues, opting instead for a mannered concentration on detail.
