Go thru the Motions

About This Movie

So, 'Go thru the Motions' is an interesting piece from 1975, part of that REWIND + PLAY anthology. The film really captures a unique atmosphere with its experimental approach, blending video art and early cinematic techniques. There’s a certain kind of pacing that feels both deliberate and erratic, which emphasizes its exploration of motion and stillness. You can see the raw, practical effects at play—it's not polished like modern films but has a charm that's hard to ignore. The performances, though perhaps unrefined, carry an earnestness that adds depth to the viewing experience. It’s definitely a work that invites you to engage and reflect rather than just sit back and watch.

'Go thru the Motions' is a fascinating exploration of early video art, making it quite scarce in collector circles. It's included in the REWIND + PLAY anthology, which adds to its interest among those who appreciate avant-garde cinema. These kinds of films often don't get the attention they deserve, so finding a good quality print can be tricky. If you stumble upon a nice copy, it's worth considering for the collection, especially for those drawn to the evolution of video art in film history.
