MONICA
LUMIERE AND COMPANY
(France/Spain/Sweden, 1995 90 min.)
A lively tip of
the hat to the pioneers of the moving picture, this
is an anthology of short pieces by 40 contemporary
filmmakersincluding Peter Greenaway, Spike Lee, David
Lynch, Wim Wenders, and Zhang Yimouwho made their own
"Lumiere" films with a restored camera that
once belonged to the Lumiere brothers. The filmmakers
were required to work according to the same conditions
under which the Lumieres made their films one hundred
years ago: the sequence could not exceed the 52 seconds
of film, could not use sound, and could not be artificially
lit.
