Title: A Surrealistic Postmodern Journey into a Lyrical Wonderland
Product review: The first time I saw this video, I wondered where it was shot, as the film is other-worldly in its scope, its landscapes serene, yet oddly and discomfortingly familiar. Yet on my subsequent viewings, it was obvious that something magical was lurking beneath the surface. From the moment that Odile and Yvette jump out of their psychotic father's car and run through the cornfield in a scene reminiscent of North By Northwest, we know we are in the hands of a master. Director Andre Burke has a true sense of how to create tension in seemingly mundane details with his sparse use of evocative, nondiagetic music and superior shot composition. And only when Odile's secret is revealed do we understand just why she and Yvette are on the lamb in the first place. A must-see for people of all ages, it stands as the new Red Balloon for the Next Generation.
