An unclassified memory,desensitized by any...sense of rhythm or burnout,ha!There's not a stitch of parallel narration,no flickering tricks,no nothing!It is what it is,a stylized document with a questionable motive by Frampton's side but his blazing mementos will "light your fire".Seriously,avoid it if you don't want to die out of arteriosclerosis of the eyes!!! However,for the ones who don't mind the challenge of a photographic journey...in shambles,come aboard.

Film of photos being placed on a stove's burners and then burnt/melted into wriggling black tortured pieces of... nostalgia? A narrator describes the stories behind the photographs, but it's out of sync. We watch memories burn as the (somehow comical) description reveals experience yet to come. Keep an eye out for the Frank Stella print and the "mystery" photograph.

In this film we see a series of photographs, mostly Frampton's own shots, slowly burning one at a time on a hotplate. At the same time Frampton tells the story of the next picture that we will see, while the picture from the last told story are burning. Sounds tricky? Well, it is not. It's a very simple film, only still camera scenes with voice over. It creates a lust of seeing the next picture but ends up confusing since there always will be some sort of talking while we finally see it. 10/10 for it's orignallity and idea, 8/10 for the result.

Frampton's (nostalgia) centers around just that; nostalgia. Frampton looks back at his early artistic photographs and his early memories of life, burning each photograph he describes as a form emotional catharsis and as a way of providing a physical representation of the ways in which memories fade over time while small details and feelings remain. It's insanely sweet, melancholic, and more than a little sad to watch someone mull over the remnants of their past life and burn them, but the effect is undeniably powerful, and the film as a whole earns its reputation as a classic of experimental cinema with this emotional resonance and universal form of conveyance.

Brilliant When You Really Dissect Everything Behind It And All The Meanings.
