Deutsch uncannily collapses all boundaries<br />
between the genres, suggesting a feverish<br />
celluloid dream – or nightmare.<br />
Melissa Anderson – VILLAGE VOICE<br />
<strong>Film</strong> is. a girl & a gun takes its title from a D. W. Griffith maxim, stating that all a<br />
director needs are these two elements. Deutsch uses the concept as a jumpingoff<br />
point for an exploration of Thanatos and Eros, infusing narrative, medical, and<br />
pornographic sources with mythic symbolism. As Deutsch reveals metonymic<br />
visual links between the genres, the boundaries between fiction and documentary<br />
grow both indiscernible and irrelevant. (Ed Halter)<br />
