PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY

October 23rd, 2012

PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY- 2012. Synopsis by Rotten Tomatoes. “Filmmaker Ross McElwee finds himself in frequent conflict with his son, a defiant young adult who seems addicted to and distracted by the virtual worlds of the internet. To understand the growing distance between himself and his son, McElwee travels back to St. Quay-Portrieux in Brittany for the first time in decades to retrace his own journey into adulthood. He also hopes to track down his first employer, a photographer named Maurice, and Maud, a woman with whom he was romantically involved. Photographic Memory is a meditation on the passing of time, the praxis of photography and film, digital versus analog, and the fractured love of a father for his son.”

10/12/12- A good review in today’s NY Times– I think! TRDB.
