Erection (1971) - John Lennon and Yoko Ono

It's really hard to call what Lennon did here directing, but well who knew the Beatle could make movies? Lennon heard of the construction in London of the International Hotel and decided to document it. With a time lapse camera he set up to take pictures of it throughout its construction. What occurs is a gradual (roughly 17 minutes) of the building from foundation to completed hotel. Now I'm unaware of any hidden meaning behind the film, but if it was simply a means of testing out the equipment it certainly worked. I also applaud Lennon on the very ironic title for the film. The soundtrack was from one of those Lennon/Ono albums that no one ever listened to because its intolerable nonsense.
