Every possible commentary on this four and a half minute piece of footage of the, until now, little-seen 1994 documentary Wildwood, N.J. is floating around on the blogSHOOTMEosphere, so I will just say this: every single outfit worn by these girls on the Jersey Shore could be whacked onto a Mile End hipster and none would be the wiser.
That is, however, obviously not what makes Wildwood compelling. And like I say, I won't venture into the nuts and bolts of why I can't stop watching this. I just hope that the bafflingly abrupt popularity of this one obscure project is symptomatic of contemporary evolving styles in film-making, and not something meme-ish or fashioney. SEE GUYS I CAME FULL CIRCLE.
