Balançoires (8.4)

Film · 1928 · 25 min · Commedia

A young couple go to the carnival. After some savage heavy petting they meet a sinister fakir who offers to sell them Truth for six sous. A set of uncanny events follow. At worst 'avant-gardist' in the extreme, at best the counterpart to Cœur Fidèle's 'fête foraine' sequence after the abolition of melodrama. Excellent black screen cutting and chaotic camera shaking characterize the style.

Regia: Noël Renard

Con Hubert Daix, Valentine Gragowska, Josette Perdriat, François Viguier
