JALOPY HOUR<br />

Owen O'Toole, Jeffery Plansker<br />

Jalopy Hour war als Fernsehserie konzipiert, die in verschiedenen<br />

amerikanischen Städten gedreht wird und deren kulturelle<br />

Geschichte durch die Verwendung eines absurden Wortschatzes<br />

entlehnt von Ernie Kovacs, Lord Buckley und Buster Keaton<br />

erforscht wird. Sie beschrieben New Orleans als ›die einzige<br />

Stadt, in der Jalopy Hour gedreht werden konnte, der einzige<br />

(Ort), der das Gefühl vermitteln kann, sich in einer anderen Zeit<br />

zu befinden, einer Zeit in der Antike und dem Ende des Kolonialismus<br />

sowie der Lösung von Konflikten durch die Öffnung einer<br />

Flasche.‹ - Caspar Stracke<br />

Jalopy Hour was conceived as a TV series shot in different<br />

American cities, exploring their cultural histories by the use of<br />

an absurdist lexicon borrowed from Ernie Kovacs, Lord Buckley<br />

and Buster Keaton. They describe New Orleans as ›the only city<br />

where Jalopy Hour could be filmed, the only (place) possessing<br />

the sense of stepping into another time, of preserved antiquity<br />

and colonial decay, of conflict resolution reached through the<br />

mouth of a bottle.‹ - Caspar Stracke<br />
