Monkey Filmmaking

But you know the monkey critics will give it just two bananas:

When Oedipe is complete, the researchers premiere it at the Clermont-Ferrand film festival in France, billing it as the first film ever directed by a monkey. The film is surreal, drawing on imagery from Capucine's favourite films and video games and depicting the monkey's desire to be reunited with her owner.

Oedipe receives mixed reviews - some see it as nothing but "cut and paste" work, others as a stunningly original and modern work of art. Whatever your take on Oedipe, Capucine is one of the more entertaining films I have seen in quite some time.
