Another Girl Another Planet is a 1992 film written and directed by Michael Almereyda.[1] The film is notable for being shot on a Fisher-Price PXL 2000 children's camera.[2] [3]
Bill struggles to find a lasting relationship and meaningful connection through a succession of women, who have all been touched in some form by the death of someone in their lives.
Vincent Canby of The New York Times wrote "Michael Almereyda's 56-minute 'Another Girl, Another Planet' is something else entirely. It's as American as the East Village walk-up in which it was made, and as comically angst-ridden and gray as its images. 'Another Girl, Another Planet' was initially shot on a Fisher-Price Pixel toy video camera, then transferred to 16-millimeter film."[1]
The National Society of Film Critics gave the film a special citation in its 1992 awards[4] for "expanding the possibilities of experimental filmmaking, including the use of a Pixelvision toy camcorder."[5]
