Stranded in Canton
Hardcover | First edition | | 48 pages
Published by Twin Palms Publishers, 2008.
William Eggleston’s pioneering 1974 video work, Stranded In Canton. The book contains forty frame enlargements from the digital remaster, an appreciation by Gus Van Sant, and includes a DVD of the seventy-seven-minute film itself, along with more than thirty minutes of bonus footage and an interview with Mr. Eggleston conducted at the 2005 Toronto Film Festival.
“Shot in 1974 with a Sony Porta-Pak, the crazily careering Stranded in Canton documents a cast of hard-drinking Southerners with the intimacy, ease and instability of a seasoned participant. Whiffs of Southern Gothic are not new to Mr. Eggleston’s work, but here they rise to the surface—fierce, tragic and proud.”
Condition: Brand new (sealed deadstock)
