This Friday and Saturday!!!
Daft Punk Interview - VBS.TV
Quote:
Daft Punk's Electroma
Daft Punk's Electroma is an odyssey of two robots (played by Peter Hurteau and Michael Reich) who journey across a mythic American landscape of haunting, surreal beauty on a quest to become human. Their symbolic quest, which takes them from endless two lane highways to small idyllic towns to the arid desert, finds Daft Punk once again resisting conformity and developing new ways to highlight their inventive vision. A departure from the usual cinematic experience, Daft Punk's Electroma captures images and scenes with specific detail. Each scene can be viewed independently, likening the experience to the viewing of an art exhibit, or the recollection of one's own memories. With its breathtaking cinematography, innovative filming techniques, and above all its underlying search for humanity within a dystopian environment, Daft Punk have delivered a film that finds a common thread with their previous work while exploring new horizons as directors of their first feature film. The DVD will be released in spring 2008 on VICE Music.
"A gem. Daft Punk's widescreen debut is a beautiful, sun-blushed nugget of cinema."
THE GUARDIAN
"A piece of visceral art free from the traditional foundations of narrative filmmaking. It's a fully imagined experience." ANTHEM
"Daft Punk is doing for midnight movies what the French electronica maestros did for disco: injecting the faded genre with their own brand of vitamin Cool." WIRED
