Julien Temple's history of Cuba, "Habaneros", freely dumps into a blender original newsreel footage, appropriated clips from other documentary or narrative films made in or set in Cuba (or simply illustrative of or punning on events in the voiceover) and his own contemporary (Obama-era) street photography and interviews.
(e.g. In one of my favorite moments, a half-hour after he's included the end of the endless sequence shot from the beginning of "I Am Cuba" when the camera tracks out an open window to look straight down into a crowd, he reproduces the shot with a drone, floating out over the same (but now empty) street, without even making a comment in the narration. (It sticks in my mind because I just saw the film, like, two days ago.)) -- Best regards, Jim Flannery mailto:[email protected] -- Frameworks mailing list [email protected] https://mail.film-gallery.org/mailman/listinfo/frameworks_film-gallery.org
