Lydia Cambron from New York has made exceptional use of her time in isolation. The great leveller that is the current pandemic has the majority of earthlings simultaneously bunkered down at home living a somewhat skewed variation of the norm. Clearly not one to waste her time, Lydia has put together an incredible reenactment of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey’s timeless, still cryptic final sequence. A tribute, a homage, call it what you will, I found it incredibly entertaining, especially in the way that it captures the sense of distorted time that we are currently all living through. No doubt resources were at a minimum, but with a fancy bag of film making tricks the end result is just awesome. Attention to framing detail and the use of regular household items are genius. Her own acting, timing and subtle eye movements had me in awe. No doubt a few takes involved, but time on her side during lockdown in New York City. Some favourite frames below. Be sure to scroll to the end to watch the full film. More information and plenty to see at her neat little website.
