Product Description

This is 63 minutes and 1 second of pure white screen. Nothing less and nothing more. Just shocking new absurdism. Without compromise. Without compare. Nigel Tomm brings his own version of William Shakespeare's 'Hamlet.' Luminous. Sensuous. Iconic. From the moment you touch the play button, the experience begins. Visually stunning, emotionally precise, the extraordinary awaits you. Probably it is one of the most intense, the most radical, the most innovative manifestation of the freedom of thought, of expression and of creation. This is the new 'Hamlet' - the most majestic 'Hamlet' experience by Nigel Tomm.

This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

1.0 out of 5 stars OVER AN HOUR OF PURE WHITE SCREEN RECORDED ON A DVD-R, March 15, 2008

By	C. Scanlon "least helpful reviewer" (among us humans) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

The name of Nigel Tomm is associated with an unreadable "remix" of random words formatted with a scriptwriter's software and published as Shakespeare's Hamlet Remixed (see also in the selected works travesty). Please see the reviews there.

This disk, a DVD-R made on demand, is over an hour of white screen, as described here in the product description/editorial review, which also calls it the most majestic Hamlet from the pseudonymed Tomm (where does that leave the other, print, Hamlet?), as well as luminous. Yes, I guess an hour of pure white screen might be called luminous; it could certainly light your way to the bathroom.

An hour of pure white screen, the only word of Shapkespeare being the title. Save your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars blank, August 28, 2008

By	Richard Lautenbach "castleflowers" (Miami Beach, Florida United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This title pops up when you enter the film search term "Jacques Derrida," a philosopher of life changing power who was afflicted, as we are, with archive fever. I wanted to send Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering Kofman's wonderful documentary film "Derrida" to a friend, and now must grapple with this. I was instantly bugged by the dedication. I suspect I'll be haunted for quite a while, after all there is something there, we just can't see it. I remember how when I read somewhere of a film "made" by the French provocateur Guy Debord (the unsung leader of some rascals in Paris that called themselves the Situationist International, and the rightly revered author of "The Society of the Spectacle"), that the film was sixty minutes of black screen and no sound, I wanted to be a film critic. I wonder if ever there will be a day in my life which is so refined that I can watch these two films with my two dogs without giving it anymore thought than I would when I throw on my scratched copy of The Mask of Satan or The Twitch of the Death Nerve. Never say never. And remember, as the Italian mobster says to the Irish hood at the start of the Cohen brothers film Miller's Crossing: "You's fancy pants, all a you's." Me too.
