Watch Edith Walks For Free
Edith Walks
Edith Walks is a 60 minute 66 second feature film inspired by a walk from Waltham Abbey in Essex via Battle Abbey to St Leonards-on-Sea in East Sussex. The film documents a pilgrimage in memory of Edith Swan Neck. The 108 mile journey, as the crow flies, allows the audience to reflect upon all things Edith. A conversation in Northampton between Alan Moore, Iain Sinclair and Edith Swan Neck is also a key element to the unfolding 'story'. With images shot using digital super 8 iPhone's and sound recorded using a specially constructed music box with a boom microphone the film unfolds chronologically but in a completely unpredictable way. The numerous encounters and impromptu performances en route are proof, as if needed, that the angels of happenstance were to looking down upon the troop, with EDITH as their hallucination

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
So, spacetime is a 4D solid, which gives some people the impression that the past is somehow closer, more here, than if they think of space as 3D and time as another independent dimension. This is pants. Think of a one dimensional line passing through the universe - and someone within that line says, there is a second dimension, creating a "plane", which is fair enough. But it is not fair enough to claim that all the infinite things in the 2nd dimension seem "closer" to the line just because you understand that it is there.The past is not here, and neither is the future. They are as distant and untouchable as a 4th "spatial" dimension.The problem for the artistic sensibility is that we all lives our lives in time, experiencing for ourselves "now" continuously throughout our lives. And, we know about history, and can predict the future. But this does not make 1066 close, any more than a point on the plane is close to the line. OK, added to all the cod philosophy beloved by middle-aged men is a terrible film.
