Teasing Frank V. Ross’ TIGER TAIL IN BLUE (2012)
Casey Neistat Occupies NewYorkNewYork (3’32”)
A furious edit of events at Zuccotti Park. “My office isn’t far from Zuccotti Park and when I heard it was being cleared I went down with my camera. I ended up filming for 18 hours until the Park was reopened at 6pm on November 15, 2011. The police presence was overwhelming, more than I’ve ever – more than during the blackout, more than the days after September 11.” The last shot is clumsy and comical and terrifying and even perfect, sort of as if Neil Armstrong’s one-small-step-for-mankind on the surface of the moon had flung the American flag out into deepest space. Bye, flag.
