[Frameworks] 360 degrees

[Hardin, Ted]

Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s fondness for this technique was on display at the Martin Gropius Bau in Berlin last year.  Here’s a list of films that were displayed:  “Another room in Fassbinder – JETZT is dedicated to one of Fassbinder’s favoured formal techniques: the 360 degree tracking shot. Scenes from Rio das Mortes (1970), World on a Wire (1973), Martha (1973), Chinese Roulette (1976), Berlin Alexanderplatz (1979/80), and Querelle (1982) play on a loop on a hanging screen.”

‘Chinese Roulette’ has my favorite 720 degree tracking shot through glass shelves.

A handheld 360 movement around two young men kissing in an obvious homage to the "Vertigo" kiss appears in Warren Sonbert's first film, "Amphetamine."
