Films of Anne Rees-Mogg

A few stills from the films of Anne Rees-Mogg, director of the London Film-maker's Co-operative for a time. These are just magic. A kindred spirit of Brucey Lacey and the Laura Mulvey of Riddles of the Sphinx..."Every room of Anne's house was like a living Joseph Cornell box" -- Anna Thew. Here is a clip from her 1977 film "Sentimental Journey." That is Anne doing the cartwheel halfway through. More here.

  4. http://player.bfi.org.uk/film/watch-grandfathers-footsteps-1983/ You can see four of her films in full here. She was my aunt and we did lots of little bits of performing for her films (e.g. eighteenth century dresses above). Wonderful woman and wonderful artist.
