BACK AND FORTH

Michael Snow

1969 50 B&W

Film description

"Not only did "Back and Forth" expand the possibilities of cinematic framing as postulated in "Wavelength"; it actually expanded the parameters of movie narrative as we’d previously recognized them, expanded them even beyond Godard’s bold effects in such films as "Weekend". For, in "Back and Forth", Snow was able to completely suffuse form and content, while not relinquishing the traditional elements of characterization and acting. The relentless back and forth pan stresses similar concepts which Snow had engaged in his sculptures and carries still further with experiments with perception and illusion which began in "Wavelength"." Gene Youngblood, L.A. Free Press
