As well as Baraka.

I'll have to look out for Chronos, though.

Apparently Fricke has a new film entitled Samsara that premiered at the Toronto
International Film Festival last month but is yet to be released and there appears
to be no trailer available at this time. Also shot in 70mm.

He certainly has an extraordinary photographic eye.

What a truly astonishing video. Ive had to watch it several times just to comprehend all the scenes. The music choice and editing was spectacular as well.

Looks cool, but I would have preferred one place and several nights and days as a film. Showing all the scenery surrounding the camera. Now that would be epic.

Stop posting these links. There's nothing wrong with my 1.8 GHz Athlon CPU or my 64 MB AGP video card. There is no reason to upgrade.

Thanks H,

Another great video showcasing some fabulous talent!

Plus nice choice of Michael Nyman's piece "Time Lapse" written for Peter Greenaway's
"A Zed & Two Noughts".
One of my favourite pieces.

Like Philip Glass, Michael Nyman and the Michael Nyman Band performing at the
Sydney Opera House is an extraordinary thing to experience.

It's at times miraculous how the right choice of music can transform a movie scene.

A dream would be to have the budget to afford to pay either Philip Glass or
Michael Nyman to write the score for your own movie.

Thanks again for the great link.

That would be the little " ferret " running around inside your " single core " CPU, yelling instructions to the other " ferret " sitting idle in the GPU.
