Musidora, the actress we know as Irma Vep in Les Vampires, spoofs her own celebrity and femme fatalism in La Terre des taureaux (Land of the Bulls), which she directed. More a delightful excercise in self-reflexivity than narcissism, the film has the star as filmmaker/adventurer journeying to Andalusia to watch the bulls (from a respectful distance) and the bullfighters, scouting for a star for her movie. Germaine Krull, the intriguing French photographer whose work is currently on view at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, made two short films: Six pour dix francs and Il partit pour un long voyage. "Six for ten Francs" is the ad of an itinerant photographer who lands a most difficult gig-photographing a bride and groom in a hilly village fraught with perils, while the wedding guests patiently wait. The film is at once starkly photographic and comic in a René Clair vein. Il partit tells of a young boy's dream of travel, embodied in a barge on which he longs to stow away; he finally gives up everything (that is, homework) to do so. Exercises in visual storytelling, both films are strikingly beautiful as befits this photographer. (JB)
