by Richard Serra (1976, 19 mins, Silent, B&W, 16mm): "...Railroad Turnbridge is about the meeting of machine and machine (camera and bridge) and how they and their movements, sometimes parallel, sometimes in opposition, frame the landscape which surrounds them. It is also a study of a functional steel structure by a sculptor whose primary work has been large metal structures... The camera movements, choice of shots and editing have their basis in the mechanism of the bridge structure, in its finite and inevitable range of coupling and uncoupling movements...(with) a shot of the landscape seen through the rectangles of the bridge's opening, the bridge (becomes), in movement, a giant extension of the camera viewfinder..."
