"Windows" is a 3.5-minute short film from 1975, which was written, directed and narrated by filmmaker Peter Greenaway. The title of my review already summarizes this 40-year-old film nicely I think. Greenaway tells us about people falling out of windows, who they were, how old they were, why it happened, at what time of the day it happened etc. It all feels really random to me, but I would say this about almost every Greenaway film I have seen so far. these were such tragic, personal events in every single case (especially the infanticide) that it would have been much more interesting to tell a few details about one case perhaps instead of rambling numbers and figures that really do not make an impact to anybody except the police probably and statisticians. I cannot recommend the watch here. I am yet to see a Greenaway film that really works well for me and I have seen most of his very short works.
