Hungarian filmmaker Béla Tarr has been playing with shot duration for the last four decades. He swoops, swivels, and dances his camera so that cuts last upward of one minute — this, in an era when the average lasts a frantic ten seconds. Tarr once used a single shot lasting an epic 67 minutes in a TV production of Macbeth. As part of a three-week Tarr retrospective at LACMA, two of his earliest films screen tonight: his 1979 debut film, Family Nest (Családi tűzfészek), and 1982's The Prefab People (Panelkapcsolat).
