The Geography of the Body (1943)
Audience Score
A quotation from Aristophanes The desire and pursuit of the whole is called love precedes views of a man and a womans bodies often in extreme close up Offscreen a voice recites fragments of oracular literature and purple prose We see an eye an ear a mouth a tongue bits of hair a hand the tips of fingers toes Occasionally the frame includes a larger scape of a body a chest a back a breast Usually the camera is stationery sometimes it moves across a body remaining in close up They hold hands for one moment The bodies are without clothes no genitalia are visible
