Connexions (1970) – filmed in 16mm, colour, sound, 15 minutes
In “Connexions” Greg Curnoe describes all of the intricate connections in his life over moving images of London’s downtown, neighbourhoods and bars. You also see studio images of Jack Chambers painting his famous “401” painting. Connexions becomes a diary – narrative – biographical – autobiographical home movie of regionalism – provincialism.
Greg Curnoe’s “No Movie” (1965) was originally filmed in 16mm using a 1938 Cine Kodak Magazine Load Camera. It was his first movie. The original music soundtrack was recorded by members of the Nihilist Spasm Band, but this sound recording has since been lost.
The 8 minute, (now) silent, colour movie records the history of the Nihilist Party in London, ON.
