Viennale: red shirley
one (if not the climax) of the Viennale, took place yesterday in his Gartenbaukino performance: the Viennale director Hans Hurch could welcome lou reed and screening of his film red shirley .
basically a small, fine piece of oral history, the lou reed interview with the capture of his now 102-year-old cousin Shirley. what is now not the major would be art, because you a story like that of Shirley applications already get out of astonishment over all the already would follow curious: Born in Poland, WK just experienced there I, in 1928 emigrated - 19 years old, alone, armed with two suitcases and no English - to Canada, which was then seen as too parochial, making them illegal on to new york, traveled there as a seamstress gained a foothold in the textile industry (including a dress made for Liza Minnelli), and finally in the Italian trade union led the resistance ... however, proves reed heart and humor, if he asks for details shortly, noting that the now well you can not be serious ( cheating? ), he shows that he is about the person rather than with the story. Now what are probably some critics surveyed, because that would be after all the documentary requirement for . However, one gets the impression that lou reed his movie as not intended to be understood. red shirley should definitely not be documented in the traditional sense, it is a love letter a remarkable woman.
the subsequent audience discussion with Hans Hurch and Edek Bartz (for whatever reason the man as took part ...) then was sometimes quite funny to hear. Hurch exhausted himself in technical details, Bartz tried it on the history - reeds answer came in the most scarce. after he had his nose full of it, he directed a short hand to the audience ask about - maybe we should end our little talk here which had now, however, not led to much more detailed statements. Well, mr. Reed does not seem the words of the great man, however: a good teller he was always on the lips ...
