The Man With a Camera (1929)

Directed By: Dziga Vertov
Screenplay: Dziga Vertov

MOVIEW PREVIEW -
The director loved machinery—looms, trolley cars, speeding automobiles. He also loved cinematic tricks—freeze frames, superimpositions, speeded-up action and slo-mo. He put both of his obsessions together in this jazzy, delirious portrait of urban Russia, and his innovative film retains its power to stun and delight 76 years after its release. Technically it is a documentary, but really it is a poetic tribute to modernism's hopeful beginnings.— RICHARD SCHICKEL.
