Have You Seen My Movie? (Smith, 2016): ICA Cinema, 12.35pm


ICA introduction:
This debut feature by Paul Anton Smith is a sprawling collage of clips obtained from hundreds of films which cumulatively explore the ritual of film-going. Smith, who worked with Christian Marclay on The Clock of 2010, was determined to make ‘a montage from existing footage that could feel like something else, something mine.’ With extracts culled from an eclectic variety of films, Have You Seen My Movie? functions as a vivid archive of the many ways moviegoing has been self-referentially depicted throughout cinema history.

Here (and above) is the trailer.
