ONE WAY BOOGIE WOOGIE
Directed by James Benning
Benning presents 60 one-minute static shots of one-way streets in Milwaukee. Patterns emerge through editing, and ordinary images--smokestacks, road signs, Volkswagen Beetles--take on greater significance through repetition. This film, which at times seems like a series of photographs, stands out as Benning's most structuralist work. 1977, U.S., 60 minutes.
