Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles: Day x Day x Day


This visual essay remix (produced by Dr. Drew Morton, Assistant Professor of Mass Communication at Texas A&M University-Texarkana) – more of a tool for formal analysis – layers Chantal Akerman’s three days upon one another in order to facilitate the analysis of visual patterns and temporal rhythms. This remix is by no means a replacement for watching the film linearly, but as a supplemental guide map for cinephiles and scholars. TABLE OF CONTENTS: The film has been re-arranged to chronologically represent Jeanne’s day (morning to night). SCENE I: THE MORNING (Days 2 and 3 Only) Start-14:35 SCENE II: MID-DAY (Days 2 and 3 Only) 14:35-1:01:25 SCENE III: THE CLIENT (Days 1-3) 1:01:25-1:15:43 SCENE IV: THE SON (Days 1-2) 1:15:43-End
