Notes on Jonas Mekas (2000)
Movie"Is Jonas too shy to let himself be interviewed by a woman"
My purpose in filming NOTES ON JONAS was not to make a portrait per se As a film editor I was mainly curious to know about his editing technique When I tried to get an interview Jonas played his accordion his tuba his harmonica He even organized a jam session in the basement of AFA I wondered Is Jonas too shy to let himself be interviewed by a woman Enlisting a cameraman to shoot the film instead of me did the trick Jonas invited us to his loft on Broadway and to his editing room How happy I was to be watching as he gave me a long master class Jackie Raynal
