The Pursuit of Happiness

Streaming video - 1940

16mm 1.37:1 black & white intentionally silent 16fps, 8:09 minutes; courtesy of the filmmaker. Photographer Rudy Burckhardt shows us the ebb and flow of people rushing about Manhattan. Equally exhilarating in his novel approach to snap images quickly on the run, a method he inaugurated and that continues to the present day. In film, he added slow and fast motion, split-screens and superimpositions to his repertory.
