We are all specimens on the eyes of the camera. The pleasure of movement. Andersen’s formal exploration of Muybridge work remains great and this is often very funny in the counter point between dry academicism and playful formalism.
Thom Andersen's hour-long documentary adroitly combines biography, history, film theory, and philosophical reflection. Muybridge's photographic studies of animal locomotion in the 1870s were a major forerunner of movies; even more interesting are his subsequent studies of diverse people, photographed against neutral backgrounds.

I think there’s probably a better, more insightful essay film to be made on Muybridge that meaningfully interprets his work and legacy in more depth than this does (and doesn’t get strained and overly prosaic in the same way) - hell, I think Nope has more to say on this front and it’s just a subplot there - but on the other hand, it’s probably the best film that could be made on the technique and practice of an art form that died with him.
Der Film kombiniert Biografie, Geschichte und Filmtheorie, um die revolutionären Bewegungsstudien und das komplexe Leben des Pioniers der Fotografie Eadweard Muybridge aus dem 19. Jahrhundert zu untersuchen.
Regie führte der amerikanische Filmemacher Thom Andersen im Jahr 1975.
Die Laufzeit des Films beträgt 59 Minuten.
