Lilia Vianney. A It’s great and it’s so cool recommend for me an experts on cinema critics I adore it Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/18/24 Full Review Audience Member A slight collection of some of Cunningham's finest and freakiest work. Particular highlights include his work with Aphex Twin and his stunning Bjork collaboration. A director of unique visual sensibility who really should direct a feature film at some point. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member There are only two directors out there that, when I'm about to see something of theirs for the first time, I actually get nervous. One is Takashi Miike, an absurdly genius director and the other is Chris Cunningham. And he's best known for his MUSIC VIDEOS..... that's right. His videos are like mini-nightmares that punch you in the face and then they're gone. This man can bring some of the most horrific things you've ever seen to life, all in the span of a song's length. Try watching his video for Aphex Twin's "Come to Daddy" and not feel your skin start to prickle. An old woman walks her dog around an abandoned factory where an old TV sparks into life and evil children start coming out of the shadows. Oh, and they all have Aphex Twin's bearded, grinning face. Even the girls. And then an emaciated 8-foot tall demon man comes out of the TV. And starts hugging the children. Yeah. I shit my pants. But as terrifying as his stuff can be, it can also be absolutely beautiful. Bjork's video for "All is Full of Love" is simply a robot Bjork being born in a factory (machinery is big with Cunningham). But combined with the song and the fluid motion of the machines, it's borderline angelic. Other highlights are Portishead's "Only You" and another offering of Aphex with "Windowlicker". Look these videos up on Youtube and you'll get a smorgasboard of Cunningham's work. If you're brave, watch his short film Rubber Johnny. But don't blame me for the nightmares. I didn't twist your arm.............. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Si Michel Gondry es el Federico Fellini del video-clip, Chris Cunningham es Stanley Kubrick. La premisa no esta muy alejada de la realidad, ya que Cunningham trabajo con Kubrick en el proyecto A.I., que tras la muerte del director, fue asumido por Steven Spielberg. En este corto inventario (faltan muchos videos) del director, se puede apreciar su sentido del perfeccionismo, asi como su gran impacto visceral. "Come To Daddy" sigue siendo un video aterrador.
