Quote:
"At first glance, the structural strategy of 1933 seems perfectly in keeping with the other films in the tradition. There is a feminine specificity in the work of [Joyce] Wieland, however, that is not found in the work of Michael Snow. For like [Marie] Menken's views in Go Go Go, 1933 presents a specific kind of passive alienation from the world going on around the camera."
-- Walter Metz
