About the Movie
"An experiment in the creative communication of visible events without the aid of inter-titles, a scenario or theatre "aiming at creating a truly international absolute language of cinema," is how the inter-titles describe what is about to be seen. Bold claims indeed, but in its awesome sophistication The Man with a Movie Camera does live up to them, making it one of the most contemporary of silent movies. The subject, the life of a city from dawn to dusk, was not original even for 1928, but its treatment was the cameraman as voyeur, social commentator and prankster, exploiting every trick permissible with the technology of the day (slow motion, dissolves, split screens, freeze frames, stop motion animation, etc). A young woman stirs in her bed, apparently fighting a nightmare in which a cameraman is about to be crushed by an oncoming train. She wakes up, and the sequence is revealed to be a simple trick shot. As she blinks her weary eyes, the shutters of her window mimic her viewpoint, and the iris of the camera spins open. Self-reflexive wit like this abounds here theres even a delicious counterpoint made between the splicing of film and the painting of a womans nails. The film was the brainchild of the Moscow-based film-maker Dziga Vertov (real name Denis Arkadyevich Kaufman), a furiously inventive poet of the cinema who made innumerable shorts about daily life (such as the much-quoted "Kino-Pravda"), and played at candid camerawork and cinema verite long before they became the cliches of the television age. The editing has a fantastic abandon that makes most pop videos look sluggish.

剧情简介
　　本片是苏联纪录片导演，“电影眼”理论的创始人吉加•维尔托夫（Dziga Vertov）的代表作。电影主要拍摄于乌克兰的敖德萨市，摄像师是维尔托夫的哥哥米凯尔•卡夫曼（Mikhail Kaufman）。影片主要分观众入席、城市黎明、人民的工作与休息、体育运动和艺术实践几部分，通过刻画人民生活的方方面面来呈现苏维埃新社会中的一个理想城市。摄影师米凯尔•卡夫曼在拍摄的同时也出现在电影画面中，首创了“自我暴露”的电影形式。在这部具有里程碑性突破意义的纪录片中，维尔托夫首次使用了二次曝光、快进、慢动作、画面定格、跳跃剪辑、画面分割等前卫剪辑手法，并采用了仰角、特写、推拉镜头等新颖的拍摄手法，并制作了一段定格动画。
