Excerpt: Douglas Gordon, Feature Film

An excerpt taken from Douglas Gordon’s ’Feature Film’, London, United Kingdom, April 1999 In Feature Film, Douglas Gordon arranged a divorce between sound and vision – and orchestrated an affair between what you remember and what you see. The entire film focuses on the conductor James Conlon as he conducts a new live interpretation of the score from Vertigo in a Paris studio: the work is, in effect, a portrait and a landscape, a soundtrack and a motion picture.
