Hail the New Puritan, Michael Clark, 1986
fictionalized documentary about the Scottish dancer and choreographer Michael Clark. It was directed by Charles Atlas. Production design is by Leigh Bowery, who also appears. Much of the music is by The Fall, and Mark E. Smith and Brix Smith appear in a mock interview with Clark. Additional music is provided by Glenn Branca, Bruce Gilbert (of Wire), and Jeffrey Hinton. Using a fauxcinéma vérité style, Atlas depicts a day in Clark s life as he and his Company prepare for a performance of New Puritans (1984)
