Arthur Lipsett’s first film is an avant-garde blend of photography and sound. It looks behind the business-as-usual face we put on life and shows anxieties we want to forget. It is made of dozens of pictures that seem familiar, with fragments of speech heard in passing and, between times, a voice saying, “Very nice, very nice.” The film was nominated for an Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film.

Still slowly plugging away at these National Film Board shorts available on their website. I’ve noted it before but I’d love to see these packaged together for a theater presentation, especially the Lipsett and Bédard films.
