Michael Snow’s 45-minute zoom becomes more fascinating (and funnier) with each viewing. With puns, in-jokes, interjections of narrative, visual and aural glissandi, and guest appearances by Hollis Frampton and Amy Taubin, the film is neither as taxing nor as arty-farty as most written descriptions might lead you to believe. It is a rich and inviting formal cinematic experiment, fully deserving its place of importance in film history.
