Description
Oddball Films and guest curator Christine Kwon present I Was Born, But... The Ocean Track. The program employs the music and mood of recording artist Frank Ocean as story elements of a visual journey through the artist's underlying themes‑the exploration of birth, sex, mundaneness and surreal existence. Highlights include much-beloved children's story Where the Wild Things Are (1974), an animated sex tutorial Sex, Booze, and Blues, and Those Pills You Use (1982), Charlie Chaplin classic The Tramp (1915) and segments from Satyajit Ray's Apur Sansar (1959) and adventure film Sheherazade (1963) starring Anna Karina. Paired with Ocean's layered melodies and haunting lyrics, this cine-sound program seeks to capture the tones of love, loss and longing pervasive in the musician's work.Date: Thursday, July 26th, 2012 at 8:00pm
Venue: Oddball Films, 275 Capp Street San Francisco
