Transfer (Short 1966)

Transfer (Short 1966). 7m

“David Cronenbergu0026#39;s first film short already has the themes of alienation and psychiatry that will continue to show up for years to come.The Brood and Scanners are the most obvious examples of this. Images of a therapy session in a deserted snow filled vacant lot are striking. I saw this at the Museum of the Moving Image in Astora Queens with Stereo and Crimes of the future. Cronenberg has created thoughtful and unique films from the beginning. Transfer, a reference to the term for the feelings a client has for a therapist, is an interesting footnote for students of auteur theory and Cronenbergu0026#39;s strange body of work.”
