Synopsis

An old phonograph assembles itself, plays songs on wax drums before self destructing. In many ways The Phonograph is a companion piece to Renaissance, there is nevertheless something quietly affecting about Borowczyk’s final ‘object’ animation.

Alicia I love this movie so much
Greenes Please don't spend money on this.
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
morrison-dylan-fan Taking part in a best of 1969 films poll on ICM,I decided to check Arrows collection of shots by auteur Walerian Borowczyk. Finding a lone short from the year,I got set to turn the phonograph.View on the film:Putting the phonograph together with parts flying in the air, Walerian Borowczyk gives his animation a surrealist quality. Whilst the tracks played are sadly not subtitled, (and details of the girl in the photo sadly being something I can't find) Borowczyk does very well at making them flow with the building of the phonograph.
Michael_Elliott Le phonographe (1969) ** 1/2 (out of 4) This is a mildly entertaining short from director Walerian Boroczyk that shows us the various parts of a phonograph. The film cuts between the various parts of a phonograph while at the same time showing us a portrait hanging on the wall. All of this is done for six-minutes as the music score plays. LE PHONOGRAPHE isn't the greatest film ever made but it's at least mildly entertaining as long as you're not expecting the work of Shakespeare. The film manages to remain entertaining throughout its six-minute running time even though there's really not too much of a plot. We basically just see the various aspects of the machine and it all leads up to an effect with the picture. Nothing ground-breaking but the fans of the director should enjoy it.
