will watch again too. I had in mind what you said about cuts the first time through and at first thought it was too relentless but by the time she plays the piano I was entranced. The jumpy camera work created a kind of cut when it would cut back to her face. It built a relentless tension in to the timeline that really hooked me. Storytelling is weird primitive stuff and at its best you can't escape; huddled, as it were, around a fire waiting to find out what happens to the beautiful young girl: the face that sunk a thousand ships. She lives in a time of her own and a hunderd feet of film spool out and leave you breathless. Continuity addicts continuity addicts: every frame is an invisble cut. It must be love. Thanks for the tip, Steve.
