The Birdpeople
5/5/22, 500p, Women’s Building Buy Tickets Michael Gitlin |
“A study of ornithologists in which the observers merge indissolubly with their subjects. The film, shot on 16mm, divorces image from sound, creating a flurry of testimonials and readings that place it far above most talking-head docs. Abetted by Gitlin’s ultra-intimate eye, THE BIRDPEOPLE goes beyond the usual issues of human-bird interaction (tagging, nets, pouches, hunting, taxidermy) into profitably weird turf, such as the potent effect one warbler species had on the McCarthy hearings.”
—Edward Crouse, Village Voice
