Now Again - Part One

Director: Richard Philpott

Year: 2026

Now AGAIN is the first filmic interpretation of Marcel Proust's entire novel 'À la recherche du temps perdu'. Part Two encompasses the volumes of THE GUERMANTES WAY. The first filmic interpretation of Proust's entire novel, Philpott stretches narrative form into rich and varied experimental territories, providing a visual feastand sonic immersion, using AI and unique digital production techniques, to reveal the vast panoramic structure of Proust's great masterwork and provide a 21st century foundation for this timeless 20th century epic. A new form of story-telling for a modern age. Closer to documentary invention, rejecting costume drama. Closer to art than stage. Writing in pictures and music.

A random drama dreamt by a database. A frolic through the foreafter “in the aye”; A tale told in four ayes; The four-abend of the other ayes; A post-prequel greeting and farewell; An oculists nightmare. Methodology: Algorithgms of varying randomness source clips from a database comprised of all the elements contained in the AYE films to randomly determine; sequence, in-points, duration, tracks, layers and then automatically compile the results into a non-linear editing application, making four different sufi "Greetings" which together make this Overture to the three feature films. i eye aye i 2 aye 3rd aye "I seen the likes in the twinngling of an aye. Som. So oft. Sim. Time after time." James Joyce
