<strong>TATE</strong> FILM<br />
& Ray Eames ‘Toccata For Toy Trains’ which is the<br />
antithesis of your film (even down to celebrating<br />
toys-which-aren’t-models whereas your guy’s<br />
mind is deadpan reality-replication, even down<br />
to timetabling, models-that-only-happen-tobe-toys)?<br />
There’s a CAHIERS-style piece here on<br />
your film being about films as well as trains, both<br />
being illusionisms, and why bourgeois realism<br />
knows the model-reality difference perfectly well<br />
but loves pretending that it doesn’t- in the case<br />
of trains because confronting reality with a real<br />
train always has something heroic about it, steam<br />
against the sky,, steel lunging through space,<br />
whereas the model has no heroism at all, it’s the<br />
apotheosis of infantile –obsessional control, not<br />
to say consummate anality about…motions.’<br />
Raymond Durgnat, December 1988<br />
