So, 'Cornell, 1965' is this fascinating exploration of Joseph Cornell, a truly unique character in the art world. Lawrence Jordan captures Cornell's reclusiveness beautifully. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative, which suits the subject perfectly. You feel like you're wandering through Cornell's mind as you watch. The film uses archival footage and photographs, paired with a sparse yet haunting score that really draws you in. It’s not just about the man but also the themes of isolation and creativity. Jordan's approach to documentary feels less like a lecture and more like a personal journey into Cornell's world. It's really distinctive in how it melds art with the artist’s psyche.
