06/11/2014 Running at only two minutes long, "A Study in Choreography for Camera" boasts editing, ballet, and a mood wholly Deren's and intriguing. See more 06/04/2013 Cameras are like women: we depend on them, they are fragile, but they can be docile and loyal if you know how to treat them properly. They bring out the best of us too. A camera is your very soul; it is the third eye that transcends time and space. "There are no rules subject to tangible constraints", Deren seems to be telling us, and plays with us a little. 89/100 See more 08/30/2012 I loved it. Short, but sweet. The editing is fantastic. See more 09/26/2010 This two-minute short takes an idea from Maya Deren's third movie (this one is her fourth) and uses it again and it looks really good, but I think it's a bit short to really make an impact. On me at least. See more 02/12/2010 As someone who was quite enamored with the art of the dance, she's really talented at beautifully capturing humans in motion. This was nice while it lasted, but I just think 4 minutes is way too short. See more 09/17/2008 deren's first "pure" dance movie is a very short study in movement - that remains fascinating in it's brillant use of stylistic devices. See more Read all reviews
