Michael Nyman s MAN WITH A MOVlE CAMERA
A film by Dziga Vertov
Man With a Movie Camera is an extraordinary piece of filmmaking, a montage of urban Russian Iife showing the people of the city at work and at play, and the machines that keep the city going. It was Vertov's first fulI-Iength film, and he used aII the cinematic techniques at his disposal - dissoIves, split screen, sIow motion and freeze-frames - to produce a work that is exhiIarating and intellectualIy brilliant.
This speciaI edition DVD features a unique soundtrack specialIy composed by MichaeI Nyman and performed by the MichaeI Nyman band.
MichaeI Nyman's music has reached its Iargest audience by way of his film scores. Nyman has been researching the period of extraordinary creativity which followed the RevoIution and Iasted throughout most of the 1920s. Key to this period was Dziga Vertov's extraordinary fiIm Man With a Movie Camera which documents the fulI spectrum of 1929 Soviet urban Iife with dazzling inventiveness. lt was Vertov's exuberant montage and energetic Iyricism which inspired Nyman to create his extraordinary score.
