Gerard Courant has spent over 30 years producing a film – titled “Cinématon” – that runs to 150 hours in duration, featuring the contributions of numerous participants who have each been permitted to do whatever they wish to for three and a half minutes.
So, as I sit down facing the camera, I’m not expecting to find the experience especially enjoyable. Courant asks what I’m planning to do. I tell him I’m going to write my diary, and the filming begins. Having a camera close to my face is pretty distracting actually; rather than flirting with the lens I suspect I’m pulling some pretty bizarre expressions. I’ve been told that my face reveals exactly what I’m thinking and I’m not sure whether I want my stream of thoughts revealed on camera. But it’s way too late for that.
