It is nice to be able to watch something and not necessarily have to have a complete understanding of what is going on in the film. Emak Bakia by Man Ray is just that. Filled with multiple random clips, from women’s legs to a man playing a guitar, it is almost surreal. You can definitely see the fascination that Man Ray had with motion and capturing it in film. Revolving images repeated over and over until your dizzy and fading between shots is very impressive. He sees the beauty in small everyday actions and tries to convey that through his film. It’s pretty amazing to see how far we have come in film making.
