Since some folks seem to want to apply litmus tests to "radical"
film, here's a selection (all on Ubuweb, so you can check them out
for yourself if you haven't seen them) to ponder or argue about:
Dziga Vertov
Three Songs About Lenin 1934
Guy Debord
Society of the Spectacle 1973
Harun Farocki
Inextinguishable Fire 1969
Robert Kramer
Ice, 1969
Dziga Vertov Group
Wind from the East (1970)
Werner Schroeter
Der Tod der Maria Malibran 1972
Jean Rouch
Les Maitres fous 1955
Jean Genet
Un Chant d’amour 1950
Carolee Schneeman
Fuses, 1965
Henry Hills
Money, 1985
Fernand Leger and Dudley Murphy
Ballet méchanique 1924
Groupe Medvedkine
Nouvelle Societe no. 7 1969
Jean-Luc Godard and Anne-Marie Miéville
France/tour/détour/deux/enfants, color, sound
arguably they all fit the radical form and radical content criteria
