It looks behind the business-as- usual face we put on life and shows anxieties we want to forget. It is made of dozens of pictures that seem familiar, with fragments of speech heard in passing and, between times, a voice saying, "Very nice, very nice." It was critically acclaimed and plays frequently in festivals and film schools around the world."--National Film Board website,|uhttps://www.nfb.ca/film/very_nice_very_nice/ 520 A collage of still images and news footage reflecting popular American media at the time. The film shows hectic American life and the onset of unsettlement which characterizes the 1960s.--Duana Fullwiley, 11-94. 520 An experimental film by Arthur Lipsett showing contemporary society in an era of brinkmanship. 541 0 PFA 1604-01-15246.
