Dean has a habit of chopping her wide screen into discrete-and a fearless willingness to let nothing happen in some of those segments for minutes on end. It’s a technique that pays off in some heart-stopping scenes: the sudden appearance of an exhausted dancer in the space beside a close-up Cunningham; the ponderous looming into shot of a huge ship in the harbour: the almost prissy movement of a thin mast behind the robust bodies of the dancers.
