Documentary Just Like His FilmsSeptember 4, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
Some people felt that Jarman's film were artsy and highly political and classy. Others thought they were dry, low-budget, anachronistic, and confusing. This documentary is the same way. If you love you some Derek, then you will like this. It'll make you nostalgic for him. If you aren't a big fan of his, then this will just plod along and you'll start thinking about what else you could be doing besides watching this.
I am a big supporter of Isaac Julien. However, I'm not sure what much he did besides record modern shots of Tilda Swinton. Jarman died about 15 years ago, but this work is made up entirely of an interview from him. There are no living people here analyzing his work now. This documentary begs the question why it didn't come out in the early 1990s. As a corollary, maybe it did and it is just being re-packaged here. By the way, Tilda looks a hot mess with her graying hair and lack of makeup. They show a scene of Neil Tennant from 20 years ago. I forgot too that he used to have hair.
Viewers may want to watch this alongside documentaries about Gilbert & George or David Hockney.
