John C. Hecker – 1126 Dewey Avenue, Apt. 207 (1939)

Avant-garde home movie, creators unkown, attributed to John C. Hecker.

Quote:
“This mysterious film documents a neatly appointed apartment and the spartan existence of its inhabitants. A woman moves through the rooms. She pours two glasses of wine, sits, reads a magazine, and combs her hair. All the while material possessions surround her, ominously dominating the environment.” (Bruce Posner)

Quote:
The fact that this is just a casual home recording from 1939 is insane to me. Super intriguing even though nothing is really happening throughout, just a woman being human. – letterboxd (of course)
