Top ten films

Aki

At the risk of sounding a little prosiac, I'm finally adding my list of top 10 Films. This has been a long time coming and has been shaped over time by films that I keep returning to, ideas that permeate into my own work, be it design or moving image. I would like to add loads more to this list, perhaps it will expand a bit, and as always, its not conclusive.

I think many of these films are about integrity and vision. I'm still so nouvelle-vague about my choices, and I would like to include Truffaut's 400 coups, probably instead of Delicatessen; however Caro and Jeunet's films are such fun, that I can't pass it over. I'm not one for lists usually, all a bit linear and unemotional, but I've been asked so many times that I thought I should at least give it a go.
Repoman stays number 1 for ever.

Magnetic Fields


Magnetic Movie from Semiconductor on Vimeo.

An amazing film from a group that call themselves Semicondutor. In their wonderful films, they tap into science and visualise the incredible shapes, patterns, sounds and images that sometimes can be seen, but more often is invisible to the naked eye. The films have a lovely feel about them, the one above sparkles with magnetic fields, bouncing and shimmering across the screen like tiny mischievous creatures.
