Animal Movies: Fox Past -- Film Description:
"A multilayered montage of 19 century chronophotographs, Muybridge motion studies, anatomical drawings, X-rays, telescopics and Ontario tourism films from the 50s, Animal Movies traces the effects of photography and cinema on our experience of nature. Adapted from cultural theorist Alex Wilson's book The Culture of Nature, Doyle's voice-over provokes a reconsideration of the mechanics of vision."
