A haunting visionary film
I saw "H.C.E." at the Pioneer Theatre in the east village and I knew I was experiencing something haunting and extremely original. It didn't look like any movie I'd ever seen before. The director, Richard Sylvarnes, was there and he explained a bit about its creation. He had been doing a photography project for many years where he staged elaborate tableaux of important historical figures (Jesus, Socrates, etc) and some fictional ones too. Years later he put some of the frames into his computer and discovered that they became like a flip-bookthe still images started to move. He organized all of these images into a larger structure and added new material, plus trance-like music he composed himself. The result was something that looked like it was from the dawn of cinema and at the same time very new.
If you're drawn to explorative, visionary cinema, "H.C.E." is a film you should check out.
