Review of Blow-Up (1966) by Donovan T — 07 Nov 2007
What do:
1) Vanessa Redgrave.
2)Mimes and.
3)mythical 60s band Yardbirds (who famously had,at one time or another arguably 3 of the best lead guitarists ever in rock history ie eric clapton,jeff beck and jimmy page).
Have in common???
Answer: Blow-up!!!
Throw in Michael Antonioni's arty direction,David Hemming's(of Barbarella fame)sullen acting,,Jane Birkin's(of Serge Gainsbourrg fame)sensuality coupled with the melange of sex,drugs and jazz...this is THE quintessential movie of 60's swinging london...based loosely as a biography of iconic 60s swinging london photographer David Bailey!
Definitely one for the beatniks!!!
