Abstract
This 8mm film by JoAnn Elam was shot in Chicago around 1984. It features an unidentified woman, perhaps a neighbor, and (very briefly) Chuck Kleinhans, a film scholar who founded Jump Cut and a close friend of Elam's to whom the title refers. Elam films Kleinhans outside a garage, walking on the street, and standing by Lake Michigan, the surrounding streets, the “Indian Alarm” statue of Lincoln Park, and the Chicago skyline from inside a moving car. As many titles in this collection demonstrate, Elam often documented their family and friends gatherings as well as the city of Chicago, especially her house and neighborhood.
