The sixth volume of Robert Frank's films and videos includes 1990's C'est vrai (One Hour), a single-take account of Frank and actor Kevin O'Connor either walking or riding in the back of a minivan through Manhattan's Lower East Side. C'est vrai captures both the intimacy and the swift pace of pre-gentrification street life on the Lower East Side. Candy Mountain, from 1987, is also a film about traveling, though on a grander scale, and about music: Julius (Kevin J. O'Connor) learns of a legendary guitar maker named Elmore Silk, and sets off in search of him. Finally, Run/New Order, released in 1989, is the four-minute video for New Order's 'Run' single, which intersperses live footage of the band with New York street scenes that seem to slip in and out of sync with the song. As with the previous installments in this series, this volume comes in a metal film can housed in a slipcase.
