Elliott Smith

은 엘리엇 스미스의 삶과 음악에 대한 익숙하지만 명상적인 화두를 던지는 작품이다. 이 다큐멘터리는 1990년대와 2000년대 초반 명성을 얻었지만 2003년 34세의 나이에 갑자기 자살로 생을 마감한 싱어송라이터 엘리엇 스미스의 삶을 조명한다. 영화의 말미에서 관객은 엘리엇 스미스가 남긴 유산의 중심에 있는 음악을 통해 그의 믿을 수 없을 만큼 뛰어난 재능과 풍부한 관점을 발견하게 된다. (2015년 제11회 제천국제음악영화제)

The unauthorized biography of the Patron Saint of Indie Rock.

A homage to the late American singer-songwriter Elliott Smith, Elliott’s Suicide is a sentimental 15 minute tribute, lacking Anger’s usual irony for obvious reasons. The film begins with shots of friends’ and fans’ last words written on Smith’s memorial on Sunset Boulevard, then to footage of a Macy’s parade, focusing closely on the oddly outfitted participants, some in renaissance attire, cowboys with lassos, and beauty queens. The film is scored with Smith’s music, resulting in a melancholy effect, especially in the segment that follows Smith through the woods and films him as he digs up a guitar, then plays a song. This footage is repeated in the end of the film, but in a negative reversal print, suggesting pretty damn clearly that the subject matter has moved beyond the veil.

Chance, a hapless Los Angeles musician is searching for the coveted Moletron synthesizer through the classified ad paper the "Southlander", and meeting interesting characters along the way.

Training his lens on a once ubiquitous but now fading slice of Americana, documentarian Mike Mills profiles six paperboys who call Stillwater, Minn., home. Featuring interviews and footage of the youngsters pedaling through their daily rounds, the film is a paradigm of America's changing face as adults assume a role formerly filled by pubescent entrepreneurs.

Strange Parallel is a documentary/short film revolving around the American singer/songwriter Elliott Smith. The film features interviews with Elliott himself as well as fans, friends and other acquaintances of his (including Gus Van Sant, Larry Crane, and the members of Quasi). The film also includes snippets of Elliott Smith performing as well as footage of him recording an unreleased song, "Brand New Game". The film sometimes moves out of reality, with acted-out, metaphorical sequences that involve Elliott considering purchasing a mechanical hand (a "robot hand" ) to improve his music.

The concept of the show is that Brion will play accompaniment to his guest, sometimes inviting other performers on stage to assist. Like the regular Friday night shows that Brion performed at the club Largo in Los Angeles at the time, the performance is largely improvised. Those Largo performances, displaying the depth of Brion’s pop knowledge and musicianship, were huge successes. And in this instance, with Smith, the result is one amazing musical moment after another.
