My Winnipeg a Guy Maddin Picture. Cover Image Video Video

My Winnipeg [videorecording (DVD)] : a Guy Maddin Picture.

Summary:

The prismatic film mostly in classic Maddin black and white, with a classic Maddin mélange of silent-film tropes and loving re-creations of decayed found footage is a visual translation of a voluptuously nostalgic state of Maddinesque Winnipeg-itude. Using selections of personal and civic fact as his foundation, the director also narrates his own edge-of-hilarious declarations in the guise of ''Guy Maddin'' (played by Darcy Fehr), a drowsing man on a rattling train attempting to leave home. Meanwhile, the actual Guy Maddin dips into a rich trove of Freudian memory associations.
