So, 'Cinema!!!' from 1979 is this quirky piece that sort of dances around the idea of film itself. It has this odd, almost experimental vibe, which makes it stand out, but honestly, the director remains a bit of a mystery, which adds to its allure. The pacing feels deliberately jarring sometimes, but it fits the theme of exploring cinema's chaotic nature. There's an interesting use of practical effects that gives it a raw, authentic feel. The performances, while not conventional, have a certain charm that pulls you in. It's like a puzzle, leaving you to decipher its meaning long after the credits roll, and that’s what keeps collectors intrigued. It’s definitely not your standard flick.
Finding 'Cinema!!!' on physical media can be quite the hunt; it’s often overshadowed by more mainstream releases from the same era. The scarcity of quality prints adds to its collector allure, with various formats popping up at niche auctions or conventions. Interest is growing slowly but surely among collectors who appreciate its unique take on cinema and its obscure nature. Definitely one to keep an eye out for if you enjoy the oddities of film history.
