I'm looking for illustrations of public space, public interaction, and public life in films. Which are the most interesting to look at? Thank you!
Some scenes of stranger encounters in Jim Jarmusch's Patterson could be one example?
Absolutely, excellent tip. Thank you so much, Lisa! I love Jarmusch, and had seen Paterson some time ago, but for some reasons wasn't thkining about it in this context!
Oh, it was out of intuition and I didn't expect it to be helpful. Good that it was, Andrea. I've also remembered this experimental movie by William Greaves, Symbiopsychotaxiplasm, unfolding in Central Park.
Not sure if it is at all helpful, but the opening of Manhattan (1979) immediately comes to mind.
Thank you, Sahan. You mean Gandhi by Richard Attenborough, from the early 1980s?
I think you might be interested in the audiovisual work "La Vuelta" 2013 by Juan Fernando Herrán who has explored the urban interstices on a local scale in the most emblematic areas of Medellín: the communes and marginal neighborhoods. In his work, he shows a peculiarity of public space in sectors where the use of motorcycles and the alleys between houses and stairs became sculptures of the lives of the inhabitants.
