this is some kind of experimental film i don' t like. allow me to write why. jacobs uses dw griffith' s tom tom the piper' s son in such a bad way we all want to get away after the first two minutes. why? because jacobs uses every images several times, he rewinds them, cuts them, manipulates them and disfigures them completely. sound interesting... not. stan brakhage is the only master in doing this kind of stuff, but even he never messed with an already existing kind of movie. instead, jacobs uses the classic griffith work to make his own. that' s like taking beethoven, cut the best parts of it away and call it your own. that' s not only stupid, but theft. but it must be cool, i guess, if you know nothing about masters like brakhage. on the other hand, if you don' t know anything about griffith, this picture might bore you so much, you want to destroy the tape .

the terrytoons are oddly interesting, mainly for anybody wanting to see (generally) older cartoons made by lesser known and lower - budget studios. they are a mixed bag in quality, with some better than others, often with outstanding music and with some mild amusement and charm and variable in animation, characterisation and content. 1934, like all the other years for terrytoons, saw a hit and miss batch, more so than the other years even.' tom, tom the piper' s son' manages to be one of the best ones. not great as such, but it is pretty decent with some flaws but even more strengths. flaws and strengths typically seen with terrytoons generally. while its main reason for viewing is as a terrytoons completest,' tom, tom the piper' s son' has more to it than that. best asset is the music, which predictably is incredible. it is so beautifully and cleverly orchestrated and arranged, is great fun to listen to and full of lively energy, doing so well with enhancing the action. the ambitious, elaborate detail in the backgrounds is still great to see. synchronisation is neat. there are some nice amusing gags, there is zest and a natural charm and the characters are nice enough. parts of the animation, like some of the character designs and transitions, are a little crude still however. likewise, the story is paper thin and formulaic, not an awful lot new here. while generating a little tension, the conflict can be fairly predictable. occasionally, the cartoon is a little choppy and the gags are not enough and unimaginative generally, despite being amusing. in conclusion, decent. 6 / 10 bethany cox

this loose adaptation of the nursery rhyme
tom, tom, the piper' s son
has some amusing moments that make it watchable. it actually could have been pretty good if some of the details had been filmed with more refined technique. in that respect, it mainly suffers from being made before film - makers had developed numerous standard techniques for making sure that the audience would notice everything that they were intended to see. as in the rhyme, the story starts with tom stealing a pig, and then he tries to get away with it. the chase sequences that follow have plenty of energy, and they make use of a couple of decent ideas. some of it gets a bit goofy, and overall it is only fair, but it is good - natured enough to work a lot of the time. it is the earliest part that could have been better. the opening scene in the street fair is actually pretty ambitious, and it is quite detailed. but everything is too close together, and the characters too indistinct, for the viewer to catch all that is going on, unless you go back and watch it a couple more times. if it had been made just a few years later, and / or with just a couple of changes in technique, the scene (and the movie as a whole) could have been much more entertaining .

writes david schwartz of the american museum of the moving image :
jacobs reveals film as a frankenstein art. what is a movie but a celluloid corpse brought to life by the electrical spark of the projector? rephotographing a 1905 biograph one - reeler, jacobs penetrates into the image, delving into each shot, zooming in on details, probing deeper and deeper... a journey into the abyss .
jacobs constructed the film by re - photographing and dissecting a 10 - minute short made by billy bitzer for biograph in 1905. the original is shown at the beginning and near the end, and in between jacobs pursues a deep analysis into its visual elements by slowing it down, freezing frames, introducing flicker effects and examining small, abstracted areas of the frame .
