Balançoires (1928)

Name: Balançoires
Genre: Comedy
Released: 1928
Duration: 25 min

Directed by Noël Renard

Comedy · 25m

A young couple go to the carnival. After some savage heavy petting they meet a sinister fakir who offers to sell them Truth for six sous. A set of uncanny events follow. At worst 'avant-gardist' in the extreme, at best the counterpart to Cœur Fidèle's 'fête foraine' sequence after the abolition of melodrama. Excellent black screen cutting and chaotic camera shaking characterize the style.
