DVD Reviews of The Undressed Gardener
DVD Review: Good idea but no care with execution
Summary: 1 Stars
If the producers of this DVD wanted it to be jarring and off putting - sort of aversion therapy to discourage voyeurs - they have done well otherwise this is a poor piece that might still be rescued to some extent by re-working the post production side.
It appears to be a zero budget film with almost no thought behind it. The model appears in an overgrown suburban backyard. The lighting is bright, the focus is sharp (i.e. not soft), the model has to negotiate overhanging branches which make her movements awkward. The naturalness of a weedy garden are contrasted with cheap plastic pots a shiny chrome spade and a red painted wagon.
The music is not smooth having sudden, almost laboured, crescendos, there is no natural sound track (e.g. birdcalls, water running) and the changes from one shot to the next, of which there are many, are all "fade to black" transitions which disrupt the flow. This could be fixed by reworking the post production. (Note to producer - please do!)
Of a 30 minute show the first 15 are spent introducing the model but as there is no development of her character this time is wasted. I would like to have seen some evidence that the day was hot (e.g. mopping her brow) and other attempts to cool down (e.g. a sprinkler) before she resorts to removing clothes.
The movements to undress are far from casual. The model appears to hate having dirt on her hands and yet she wipes them on her torso - possibly to give an excuse for the final shower scene. The model appears inhibited as if she is not comfortable with being naked.
As an artistic film this lacks artistic merit.
