Joyce Wieland's "1933" (made in 1967, confusingly enough) appears to be a callback to the historic period of the 30's, in how it presents its single scene. This is done to create a certain atmosphere that creates context for the title, so that, as Wieland would have you think, the audience is led to believe they're watching a documentation made in 1933, rather than 1967. Yet, and despite what the viewer wants to think, the clip presented as a loop in this four-minute film is indeed a creation of the director's, and hence no such thing: to be truly made the year of the film's title, it would have to be a piece of found archive footage.
"1933" consists of a simple shot of a street with pedestrians and trucks moving by the camera. However, instead of making this scene a straightforward presentation as in Wieland's other film "Sailboat" (1967), the filmmaker instead speeds up the film (like the antique film projectors are notorious for doing) and turns it to sepia tones in order to create an atmosphere of the 1930's. The only available copy on YouTube has an added soundtrack with music, which further brings out the vibes of that period in history (even if it probably wasn't Wieland's original soundtrack). An interesting example of atmosphere in a film, if not an especially exceptional work otherwise.
