Summary |
A selection of stills from Derek Jarman's many short Super 8 films, curated and commented on by some of the most important names in contemporary cinema. Derek Jarman was one of most influential filmmakers of the late twentieth century, transcending the avant-garde to make cult feature films such as Jubilee (1978) and Caravaggio (1986). He was a painter before venturing into the world of film, and a painter's mentality permeates all his work, particularly his experiments in Super 8 film. |
