Observations on Film Art: Camera Movement in THREE COLORS: RED

THREE COLORS: RED (1994), a meditation on fate and forged connections that forms the capstone to the THREE COLORS trilogy and to Polish filmmaker Krzysztof Kieślowski’s brilliant career, is available to watch (along with THREE COLORS: BLUE and THREE COLORS: WHITE) on Criterion’s streaming service, The Criterion Channel: https://www.criterionchannel.com/thre... In this episode of the Criterion Channel original series OBSERVATIONS ON FILM ART, Professor Jeff Smith shows us how Kieślowski uses the camera to establish elusive connections between two characters who are largely unaware of one another. OBSERVATIONS ON FILM ART is a fifty-episode film school hosted by the authors of the hugely influential textbook FILM ART: AN INTRODUCTION—David Bordwell, Kristin Thompson, and Jeff Smith—that introduces the fundamental elements of filmmaking by breaking down their revealing and surprising use in individual works.
