“For me the greatest sin a film director can commit is to be boring. I didn’t want to make a film like that. I am practically making movies for myself—I am making a film I would like to see on the screen.”

    JERZY SKOLIMOWSKI Poland, 1965

    Talk about resourceful! Jerzy Skolimowski (EO) created his ice-cool debut feature—praised by Jean-Luc Godard, no less—by threading together reels from his student exercises while playing the main role. This surreal day-in-the-life of a student in postwar Poland is a feat of technical innovation.
