Apropos of San Francisco

About This Movie

Apropos of San Francisco is an intriguing piece, really. It’s all about visual rhythms—there’s this hypnotic quality to the way it plays with repetition and variation. The pacing feels almost meditative, like it draws you into its own world. You can sense some influence from Jean Vigo, which adds a layer of depth. The structure is meticulously crafted; every frame feels intentional yet fluid, creating a unique atmosphere that stands apart from its contemporaries. There’s a charm in its simplicity, and it’s fascinating how it transforms what could be mundane into something quite profound.

Apropos of San Francisco is somewhat of a rarity, with limited releases over the years. It hasn't seen a wide distribution, which makes original prints quite sought after among collectors. The film's experimental nature and its ties to Jean Vigo have drawn interest, but it remains an obscure gem. Finding a copy, especially in good condition, can be a bit of a treasure hunt in itself.
