Then there are films like "Holding the Viewer" (Tony Hill). Robert
Attanasio has a great one that is little known: "Sound Camera
Rotations" (1976-1979)
Also "The Girl Chewing Gum" (John Smith) or "Press Button to Cross
Street" (Andy Aaron) which make it seem like the director is
controlling reality.
