The girl chewing gum...

this short film seems to me, a man , the director John Smith, who is trying to direct a film that was just a real life that has already been filmed, like he is tring to make it look like he is directing it as it happens when really the film has been made and he is describing what is happening. at the beinginig of the film i thought that it was quite good, the way that the man speaking had directed it, but as i w atched i realised something wasnt right when he started to direct the two pigeons flying passed the clock, then i thought to myself that you cant actually direct pigeons, they dont know they are acting! it then started to sound like he was just describing what every person is doing and everything that was hapening. i then started to get bored of the film, but realised it was very cleverly done, being edited and directed in a specific order and how he put it all together. this 9 minute long film was made in 1976.
