  THE COLD EYE (My Darling, Be Careful), 1980, 16mm 90 min. B&W
   
  Script by James Barth and Babette Mangolte

With Kim Ginsberg, George Deem, Power Boothe, Saskia Noordhoek-Hegt, Ela Troyano, James Barth, Maggie Grynastyl and Valda Setterfield.

A “narrative” film centered on young artists living in New York City around 1979. The film is about a certain stage in the development of a young artist confronting the real world in terms of her own idealistic notions of what art is supposed to do. You never see her. She is the camera’s eye and when someone says to the camera “My darling be careful”, it could be addressing her or you the spectator. The subjective camera set-up challenges your position as an impartial observer. - BM

“Not only is her direct, unromantically elegant camera work evident in her own films, but her investigation of filmic first-person point of view in What Maisie Knew (1975), La Camera: Je (1977), and The Cold Eye (1980) is fascinating and sophisticated.”
- Scott MacDonald
