So, 'Bullfight: The C and D Rolls' is really interesting. It’s like a behind-the-scenes peek at Shirley Clarke’s short film, focusing on the untouched footage that gives you a raw look at the process. The color manipulation in the final version is striking, but here, you see the original hues and how Peter Buckley captured the energy of those moments. The pacing feels different without the final edits, almost like a meditative experience. There's something about the way this film lingers, making you appreciate the craft involved in bringing the intense reds to life. It adds another layer to Clarke's vision, inviting a deeper contemplation of the artistic choices made.
This film, being more of a collector's curiosity, is somewhat scarce in circulation. The C and D rolls are often overshadowed by the final cut but offer a distinct perspective on Clarke’s artistic process. Collectors interested in experimental cinema and film preservation will find value here, not only for the historical context but also for the visual experimentation that’s central to Clarke's work.
