Collage

Tonight I revisited Portrait of Jennie (William Dieterle, 1948), which of course is a great film maudit, a piecemeal kind of thing, cobbling together forms and techniques. I think a little, or a lot, these days about collage as a way to reorient towards unity or coherence through renewal of materials and means. In broken and diffuse lives, we find the methods we can to cope. I also recently had an idea for a short film I could even make, and maybe it would resemble Patrick Keiller's films.
