THE EARLY FlLMS OF PETER GREENAWAY 1
A WaIk Through H | H is for House | Windows | lntervals | Dear Phone | Water Wrackets
He has other reputations as weII- as an academic, as a maker of curious artefacts, as a cataloguer of the bizarre and as a librarian of the absurd.
Greenaway might as weII have been describing himseIf in this thumbnail sketch of Canton RemodeII, a character in an unmade project. Before his internationaI arthouse hit The Draughtsman's Contract Greenaway had made a series of highly inventive and witty short fiIms. Their content varies widely: the potted history of 37 peopIe who have faIlen to their deaths from windows (Windows), a sequence of 92 maps to guide a dead ornithologist on his way into the afterlife (A Walk Through H ), but all the fiIms are immensely pIayfuI and take pIeasure in outlandish detail, fake erudition and corkscrew narratives. Composer Michael Nyman started his career with Peter Greenaway and contributed a thriIIing score to A WaIk Through H.
DVD extras include a GalIey of Artworks, a GaIlery of Archives, fiImed introductions to aII six fiIms by Peter Greenaway plus hidden features.
