Shannon Hubbell’s film selection this month is ‘Man with a Movie Camera’ directed by Dziga Vertov and edited by his wife Elizaveta Svilova. The film, is famous for the range of cinematic techniques Vertov invented, deployed or developed, such as multiple exposure, fast motion, slow motion, freeze frames, match cuts, jump cuts, split screens, extreme close-ups, tracking shots, reversed footage, stop motion animations and self-reflexive visuals.
Man with a Movie Camera was largely dismissed upon its initial release, but in the British Film Institute’s 2012 Sight & Sound poll, film critics voted it the eighth greatest film ever made and was later named the best documentary of all time in the same magazine.
