Blurt (1983)

Directed by Anna Thew15m

"Two 100ft film loops ran the length of the Musicians' Collective space connecting two projectors physically, to two canvases (the screens) suspended like wafers, with superimpositions of mouths in close up and black and white images of words, texts and equations. The film-maker on separate video monitors, raps verbal explanation, poetry, reparative voice over and/or commentary, changing her hat for each change in language. This is an irreverent multi-lingual piece impishly concealing texts of renown (da Vinci, Tzara etc). A Kabuki howl cues brief live action, a shadow of an embrace and strangulation (evidently melodrama in early cinema); a bout of boxing; a mathematical (the ultimate language?) recitation delivered in the film light, from an imaginary cat walk by Ms Thew and Mr Pig, resplendent in evening dresses" M.J.L London Film-makers' Coop cata., 1983
