21:00 Mark Dresser Trio Movie Show

Mark Dresser has been attempting for some time now to breath fresh life into the times when musicians actually played from a pit in front of the screen at showings of silent movies. In addition, the bassist and his colleagues have been drawing on the films themselves as sources of inspiration for collective improvisation. Having already subjected "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari" to this treatment, now he has taken up "Un Chien Andalou", made by Buñuel with the powerful support of Salvadore Dali. "Chien Andalou" is a film best remembered by many for the scene in which a woman's eye is cut in half by a scalpel... outrageous for a film made in the early 20s! The second film which Dresser, Coleman and Speed handle on the program is Jean Vigo's "A Propos de Nice", a social criticism, in which the tourist façade of Nice is contrasted with the city's poverty.
