497. Pina

497. (21 Dec) Pina (2011, Wim Wenders)* 55



Considering earlier this year I saw Dead Dreams of Monochrome Men, arguably the best filmed dance performance of all time, it's pretty hilarious hearing people who are so fired up about Pina. This is actually rather jumbled, only occasionally entrancing. The Paul Taylor documentary Dancemaker that got an Oscar nod years back does a substantially better job illuminating who the choreographer was and where their inspirations stemmed from. Pina sort of pales in comparison, offering a brief glimpse of her life and work, that relies too heavily on the 3D gimmick.
