Quite a Handful.

Segundo de Chomon: Les Kirikis - Acrobates japonais (F 1907, 2'41'', Europa Film Treasures)

Irresistible film that inspired many artists (including choreographer Philippe Decouflé), this three-minute gem was shot by Segundo de Chomón (1871-1929), special effect specialist hired by Pathé to direct a series of films based on special effects and meant to compete with those of Georges Méliès.

Jean Genet: Un chant d'amour (F 1950, UbuWeb)

Je ne sais si toute cette magie était sensible à qui, sans l'assistance, n'avait pas ce culte de l'amour homosexuel. Il faut pourtant le croire puisque, la bande terminée, un long silence régna. On sentait que l'impression était forte, la surprise complète pour certains. Sont-ce mes idées qui me firent trouver que rien n'avait pu choquer, puisque rien ne m'avait semblé vulgaire? Cette force de l'érotisme contenue dans chaque geste, soutenue dans chaque regard, apparaissait comme essentiellement légitime. (Yves-Claude Reignoux)

John Cassavetes: Minnie and Moskowitz (USA 1971, Youtube)

I was very tired when this movie started, but I'll be damned if it didn't fire me up.  (Harry Knowles)

Paul Bartel: Death Race 2000 (USA 1975, Google Video)

I can understand society writing off the old folks as useless baggage, because we do that all-too-often anyway, but a child? Surely, even at our worst, humanity could not cheer at the sight of an infant being run over by a car. Well, except for Damien, but it is not as if a few more hugs from mom and dad (not his real dad; I mean the chump raising Damien as his own) are going to rescue the child of Satan from his dark path.  (Badmovies.org)
