Precious Images, directed by 2018 Master of Cinema honoree Chuck Workman, is a breathtaking short film featuring approximately 470 half-second-long splices of movie moments through the history of American film, pushing the audience into a kind of trance and taking them on a journey into their individual memories of great films of the 20th century.

A wonderful walk down memory lane to cinematic heights and a perfect symbiosis of film fandom and nostalgia. Needless to say, I would love to add all the titles revealed here to my film collection someday.

The best ever trailer for a movie or something more? I incline to the second. Too bad it’s so long, because toward the end it pretty much runs out of breath. But at the beginning it works as it should. Precious Images is guaranteed to get you into a nostalgic mood. At the same time it gives you the urge to look for something “new". Which, considering that at first this seems like just a few hundred random film frames edited together by a headless chicken, is quite good, isn’t it?
