Entr'acte (1924)

Directed by René Clair

Overview

Stop-motion photography blends with extreme slow-motion in Clair’s first and most ‘dada’ film, composed of a series of zany, interconnected scenes. We witness a rooftop chess match between Marcel Duchamp and Man Ray, a hearse pulled by a camel (and chased by its pallbearers) and a dizzying roller coaster finale. A film of contradictions and agreements.

Length 22 minutes
