It's meant to be chaotic and confusing...
25 August 2011
This is NOT something you might see on the Disney Channel or ABC! It's a bizarre Dadaist art film from Man Ray that was made by overlaying various objects on the filmstrip. And, occasionally, there are brief glimpses of images. If none of this makes any sense (including the nude torso and amusement park) then you are not alone--this IS the purpose of the film--to confuse and provoke, as anarchism was a major aspect of the Dadaist work. I actually found that with the accompanying music (that was added much later), it was actually rather hypnotic. Weird but actually kind of interesting in an artsy-fartsy way. And, it's impossible to give a numerical score to this film.
