Ceci Ne Serait Pas Une Pipe

1970 · 3 min

This is one of a series of films that Broodthaers made on the subject of the pipe, a reference to the work of René Magritte. A static camera depicts images of a pipe, clock, and smoke against a whitewashed brick wall. The superimposed titles were added in 1971, and include the labels ‘Figure I’ and ‘Figure II’, phrases that recur throughout Broodthaers oeuvre, and echo Magritte’s concern with the relationship between object, image and language.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Ceci Ne Serait Pas Une Pipe is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1970. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
