COMMENT “The must-have release of the year…an
avant-gardist's wish list.”
MODERNISM/MODERNITY "Unseen
Cinema offers nothing less than a fundamental redefinition of American
avant-garde film…that should be enthusiastically welcomed by anyone
invested in widening the cultural playing field of the modern…the
collection's surprising choices and irreverent juxtapositions add
up to a kind of modernist Wunderkammer with the sympathetic expansiveness
of Whitman's catalogues and the campy curiositas of Guy Maddin."
“Unseen
Cinema 7-DVD set…is probably the best seventy bucks I’ve
spent in years. I love this thing.”–Girish

pleasure."
