A propos de cet article

New York: Arthouse, Inc., 1996 (VHS tape in plastic case with printed insert). 14 minutes. Edited by Helen Levitt. Piano soundtrack composed and performed by Arthur Kleiner. From the back of the case: "In the Street" was shot mostly on East 103rd Street in New York City's East Harlem during the 1940's. It captures a parade of people who stroll, laugh, cry, fight, flirt, or quietly exist. The clowning and costumes of the exuberant characters, filmed on Halloween and other holidays, suggest a deep, humorous, sometimes macabre view of humanity caught unawares." Stan Brakhage ranks it among the greatest films ever made. Charles Silver (Curator, Dept. of Film, MoMA) writes "In the Street brought a candor and a degree of cinematic vérité to its material, long before anyone thought of coining the term." Excellent condition and scarce in this 1996 VHS format.
